Book Review of Instrumented Indentation

Download or read book Review of Instrumented Indentation written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indentation or hardness testing has long been used for characterization and quality control of materials, but the results are not absolute and depend on the test method. In general, traditional hardness tests consist of the application of a single static force and corresponding dwell time with a specified tip shape and tip material, resulting in a hardness impression that has dimensions on the order of millimeters. The output of these hardness testers is typically a single indentation hardness value that is a measure of the relative penetration depth of the indentation tip into the sample. For Instrumented indentation, also known as depth-sensing indentation or nanoindentation, is increasingly being used to probe the mechanical response of materials from metals and ceramics to polymeric and biological materials. The additional levels of control, sensitivity, and data acquisition offered by instrumented indentation systems have resulted in numerous advances in materials science, particularly regarding fundamental mechanisms of mechanical behavior at micrometer and even sub-micrometer length scales. Continued improvements of instrumented indentation testing towards absolute quantification of a wide range of material properties and behavior will require advances in instrument calibration, measurement protocols, and analysis tools and techniques. In this paper, an overview of instrumented indentation is given with regard to current instrument technology and analysis methods. Research efforts at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) aimed at improving the related measurement science are discussed.

Book Mechanical Properties and Deformation Behavior of Materials Having Ultra Fine Microstructures

Download or read book Mechanical Properties and Deformation Behavior of Materials Having Ultra Fine Microstructures written by Michael Anthony Nastasi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1993 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the emerging class of new materials characterized by ultra-fine microstrucures. The NATO ASI which produced this book was the first international scientific meeting devoted to a discussion of the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of materials having grain sizes down to a few nanometers. Topics covered include superplasticity, tribology, and the supermodulus effect. Review chapters cover a variety of other themes including synthesis, characterization, thermodynamic stability, and general physical properties. Much of the work is concerned with the issue of how far conventional techniques and concepts can be extended toward atomic scale probing. Another key issue concerns the structure of nanocrystalline materials, in particular, what is the structure and composition of the internal boundaries. These ultra-fine microstructures have proved to challenge even the finest probes that the materials science community has today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to explain hardness measurements of metals in terms of some of their more basic physical properties. The intention is to provide, for physicists, engineers, and metallurgists, a better understanding of what hardness means and what hardness measurements imply. The author emphasises the physical concepts involved, so that non-mathematical readers can grasp and appreciate the general physical picture without needing to follow the more detailed mathematical treatment.

Book A Robust Statistical Method for Determining Material Properties and Indentation Size Effect Using Instrumented Indentation Testing

Download or read book A Robust Statistical Method for Determining Material Properties and Indentation Size Effect Using Instrumented Indentation Testing written by Yang Xia and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumented indentation is a practical and powerful tool for probing the mechanical properties of materials at small scales. However, several errors (surface roughness, indentation size effect, determination of first contact point, etc...) affect the instrumented indentation testing (e.g. the low reproducibility of the indentation curves) and lead to inaccuracies in the determination of mechanical properties of materials analyzed. An original approach is developed in this thesis for the accurate characterization of the mechanical properties of materials. This approach is established by a statistical analysis of the indentation curves with taking account of error in determining the first contact point and effects of the surface roughness. This approach is basing on a minimization of the distance (defined as the initial contact depth error) between the experimental indentation curves and the ones simulated with Bernhard's model in order to generate a “unique” representative curve which enables to represent all the experimental curves. The proposed method permits to calculate the macro-hardness and the Young's modulus of materials from this representative curve with the consideration of the errors due to the surface roughness and the indentation size effect for shallow penetration. The robustness of the method is proved by its application to different groups of specimens, i.e. different materials with various mechanical properties, different surface preparation methods (polishing, sandblasting) and different indenter tips to generate different states of local stresses. A quantitative link between the surface roughness and the standard deviation of initial contact depth error is established by a multi-scale surface roughness analyzing. The proposed method enables to characterize the mechanical properties of materials without resorting to the surface preparation which may potentially alter its properties (e.g. generation of residual stresses, surface contamination ...).
