Analysis of Materials

The following can be done in the analysis of materials, which in most cases are coupled with a mechanical or possible mechanical failure:

* Determination of type of failure (i.e. metal fatigue, impact, etc.)
* Determination of cause of failure (poor maintenance, incorrect installation, etc.)
* Determination of material type and material properties
* Investigation of industrial accidents
* Analysis of filaments to determine if lights were on or off during accident
* Analysis of welds and materials to determine if a vehicle was built up from different vehicles
