Needs review: this page is currently a two-sentence stub. It should be expanded to cover actual crush test parameters (indenter geometry, crush speed/force limits, pass/fail criteria) and how they differ across UN 38.3, SAE J2464, GB 38031, and other standards referenced in the Kotak et al. survey already cited below — this needs a subject-matter pass rather than an automated rewrite.
