Dynamic nanoindentation by instrumented nanoindentation and force microscopy: a comparative review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Viscoelasticity is a complex yet important phenomenon that drives material response at different scales of time and space. Burgeoning interest in nanoscale dynamic material mechanics has driven, and been driven by two key techniques: instrumented nanoindentation and atomic force microscopy. This review provides an overview of fundamental principles in nanoindentation, and compares and contrasts these two techniques as they are used for characterization of viscoelastic processes at the nanoscale.

متن کاملDynamic nanoindentation testing: is there an influence on a material’s hardness?
Modern nanoindentation devices are capable of dynamic experimentations, which allow us to exploit instrumented hardness tests extensively. Beside the assets of recording mechanical properties continuously over displacement, there are ongoing debates whether the superimposed force alters the material's hardness. We will show for a broad range of materials that significant hardness differences ar...
