This invention provides a mufti-purpose apparatus for delivering a well- defined quantity of mechanical energy to a specimen. In the collision embodiment, the apparatus is a two-car compression specimen tester. Cars are propelled by gravity on the same set of oppositely inclined rails that merge into horizontal segments where collision occurs. This allows the kinetic energy of the cars to be dissipated into a compression specimen carried by one of the cars. Car release height affects the initial velocity of a car at impact. Car release height and car mass affect impact energy. In the sweep embodiment, the cars ride on separate tracks. One car grips a fracture specimen while the other carries a tup. The kinetic energy of the cars is partly dissipated into the fracture specimen. The specimen fracture energy is determined by measuring the initial and final height of the center of mass of each car.
