What is another word for Materials Failure Analyses?
Pronunciation: [mətˈi͡əɹɪə͡lz fˈe͡ɪli͡əɹ ɐnˈaləsˌiːz] (IPA) 
Materials failure analyses, also referred to as materials failure investigations or materials failure assessment, encompass a range of analytical techniques used to determine the causes of material failures. These analyses focus on examining the properties and behaviors of materials that have succumbed to failure, be it due to mechanical loading, corrosion, fatigue, or other factors. By scrutinizing failed materials at a microscopic level, scientists and engineers can gain valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms leading to the breakdown. Synonymous terms for materials failure analyses therefore revolve around investigating why a material has failed and often involve terms such as materials failure investigations, materials failure assessment, and failure analysis techniques.
