Mechanical Shock Resistance

Mechanical Shock Resistance also known as shock proofing or toughness, is the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing. One definition of material toughness is the amount of energy per unit volume that a material can absorb before rupturing. It is also defined as a material's resistance to fracture when stressed. Solid state relays have better shock resistance than mechanical relays.
