In this study, Cu-Cr composites were studied by nanoindentation. Arrays of indents were placed over large areas of the samples resulting in datasets consisting of several hundred measurements of Young ...

The nanoindentation technique is one of the main techniques for characterizing the mechanical properties of materials at micro and nano scales, which has been extensively employed in recent years.

Development of impact-resistant materials is crucial for numerous applications, including space exploration and the advancement of weapon and armor systems. We utilize a unique nanoindentation system ...

In an article published in Applied Materials & Interfaces, researchers obtained the temperature distribution of a battery during the process of discharging at sub-zero temperatures while considering ...

In this study, the nanoindentation of vitrinite was simulated using a molecular dynamics (MD) approach. During the nanoindentation process, some of the vitrinite atoms overcome the energy barrier to ...

Nanoindentation of metallic samples is closely related to hardness testing methods such as Vickers. The Vickers hardness test requires an imaging method to determine the size of the indentation cup.

Nanoindentation experiments can be used to measure a material’s elastic modulus and hardness as well as its fracture, fatigue and creep behavior. A multiaxial stress-field, located beneath the ...

The term bio-inspired materials or biomimetic materials refers to those materials whose structure or composition is based upon natural biological substances, and serve many objectives in an ...
