Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Uji impak Charpy" in Indonesian language version.
The impact-pendulum test method and associated equipment in nearly its current form was first developed more than a century ago. And while the basic concept behind this testing method is generally credited to two different engineers, S. B. Russell (1898) and G. Charpy in (1901); the test is now known by only the latter's name. The reason for this is due in large part to Georges Augustin Albert Charpy's technical contributions in the first half of the 20th century. These efforts included writing testing procedures in the use of a pendulum to apply an impact force to a specimen and measure the amount of energy absorbed during its fracture.
Charpy tests have been characterized materials for impact resistance till the XIX century [1-5], but relevance had been initiated by Charpy [6] the test keeping his name till nowadays.

The test principle is straightforward. The energy necessary to frac- ture the test piece is directly calculated from the difference in initial and final heights of the swinging pendulum.
