Problem<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the easiest ways to get the mechanical<br />
properties <strong>of</strong> a material is from uniaxial tensile testing<br />
This is a problem for welds since the mechanical<br />
properties <strong>of</strong> welded samples from tensile testing is<br />
limited to the instability <strong>of</strong> the weakest region <strong>of</strong> the<br />
welded joint<br />
How can we measure mechanical properties<br />
<strong>of</strong> each region <strong>of</strong> the weld
