The method we introduced in 1992 for measuring hardness and elastic modulus by
instrumented indentation techniques has widely been adopted and used in the …

Experiments have shown that nanoindentation unloading curves obtained with Berkovich
triangular pyramidal indenters are usually welldescribed by the power-law relation P= α (h …

Instrumented indentation test has been extensively applied to study the mechanical
properties such as elastic modulus of different materials. The Oliver–Pharr method to …

The mechanical behavior of bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) was investigated by
nanoindentation with a spherical indenter. The transition from perfectly elastic behavior to …

The Oliver–Pharr method was used to calculate the elastic modulus from the reloading curve
and was compared to the traditional unloading curve method. Nanoindentation and …

The load-penetration depth (P–h) curves of different metallic coating materials can be
determined by nanoindentation experiments, and it is a challenge to obtain stress–strain …

A methodology is developed which extends the combinatorial approaches to structural
materials research and development. This high-efficiency methodology employs diffusion …

The elastic behaviour of trabecular bone is a function not only of bone volume and
architecture, but also of tissue material properties. Variation in tissue modulus can have a …

Nanoscale metallic multilayers, comprising two sets of materials—Cu/Nb and Cu/Ni—were
deposited in two different layer thicknesses—nominally 20 and 5 nm. These multilayer …

The frictional behavior of rocks in the laboratory is reasonably well described by rate-and
state-variable friction laws, which reproduce a rich variety of natural phenomena when used …
