Constant strain rate nanoindentation hardness measurements at high sustained strain rates cannot be made in conventional nanoindentation testing systems using the commonly …
High-temperature or elevated-temperature nanoindentation testing presents an additional capability in nanoindentation techniques, which have demonstrated tremendous potential in …
Constant load measurements by nanoindentation offer the potential for measuring strain rate sensitivity from individual features and defects on a submicron scale. However, recent …
Hard, brittle materials are often subjected to mechanical loading on the nano-scale at high strain rates, and while high loading rates can be achieved on the macroscopic scale, there …
