Engineering - Reaching Breaking Point: Materials, Stresses, & Toughness: Crash Course Engineering #18

Today we’re going to start thinking about materials that are used in engineering. We’ll look at mechanical properties of materials, stress-strain diagrams, elasticity and toughness, and describe other material properties like hardness, creep strength, and fatigue strength.
