1. Outlines test types and data processing used to estimate the material constants 2. The most popular small punch test method, i.e. the small punch test 3. Introduces the impression creep test method using a rectangular indenter 4. Theoretical methods for data interpretation and typical test data are described 5. These include the miniature ring creep test methods 6. The miniature bar-type creep test method 7. Miniature bending creep tests 8. The more recently developed miniature thin-plate test creep and low cycle fatigue test methods  9. A specific topic related to the data interpretation is addressed in this chapter, in which the concept of the Equivalent Gauge Length (EGL) is introduced 10. The determination of material properties from the miniature specimen 11. Focuses on a specific application field on structural assessment of aero-engine gas turbine blades, where the assessment of anisotropy and lifing of service-aged gas turbine blades made of single-crystal nickel-based superalloy is particularly discussed 12. Briefly addresses several requirements for the future development of the miniaturized specimen test method, which is related to material property characterization, component assessment, size effect and multi-scale modelling, as well as standardization
