Title: Tip radius variation with elastic indentation depth

Article Details
Other Related Research

The reduced elastic modulus of a material is measured with a nanoindenter probe that is operated in the tapping mode. The resonant frequency of a freely oscillating cantilever is reduced when contact is made between the indenter tip and surface under investigation. It’s shown using elasticity theory that the elastic deformation is a function of the indenter tip radius. A deeper penetration within the elastic range can change the tip radius, and introduce an error of 10% in calculating the reduced elastic modulus.

The in-depth residual strain heterogeneities due to an indentation and a laser shock peening for Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy

Journal Article Xie, Q. ; Li, R. ; Wang, Y. D. ; ... December 2017 - Materials Science and Engineering. A, Structural Materials: Properties, Microstructure and Processing

In this paper, heterogeneity of the through-thickness residual strain due to the laser shock peening (LSP) in comparison with that due to the indentation was studied in Ti-6Al-4V alloy samples. The latter is almost a quasi-static process while the former features extremely high strain-rate deformation. The synchrotron based high-energy X-ray diffraction was employed to investigate the through-thickness residual strain distribution. The studied two samples after the two processing procedures share the following features: (i) the pressure affected depths are both ~2 mm and (ii) the largest magnitudes of the compressive residual strains parallel to the surface are ~4,000 με.

Effect of tip radius on the incipient plasticity of chromium studied by nanoindentation

Journal Article Wu, Dong ; Morris, James R. ; Nieh, T. G. October 2014 - Scripta Materialia

The onset of plasticity in Cr was investigated by nanoindentation using indenters with tip radii ranging from 60 to 759 nm. The stress for incipient plasticity was found to increase with decreasing tip radius. We find that the cumulative pop-in probability on load could be described successfully by a combined model over the full range of tip radius, indicating that the incipient plasticity might be triggered either by the homogeneous nucleation of dislocation or by the activation of existing dislocations underneath the indenter.

Indentation-derived elastic modulus of multilayer thin films: Effect of unloading induced plasticity

Journal Article Jamison, Ryan Dale ; Shen, Yu -Lin August 2015 - Journal of Materials Research

Nanoindentation is useful for evaluating the mechanical properties, such as elastic modulus, of multilayer thin film materials. A fundamental assumption in the derivation of the elastic modulus from nanoindentation is that the unloading process is purely elastic. In this work, the validity of elastic assumption as it applies to multilayer thin films is studied using the finite element method. The elastic modulus and hardness from the model system are compared to experimental results to show validity of the model. Plastic strain is shown to increase in the multilayer system during the unloading process. Additionally, the indentation-derived modulus of a monolayermore »« less

Analysis of ball-indentation load-depth data: Part I. Determining elastic modulus

Journal Article - in OSTI.gov collection Taljat, B. ; Zacharia, T. ; Haggag, F.M. April 1997 - Journal of Materials Research

Analysis of ball-indentation process was made by the finite element (FE) method. A series of indentation FE analyses were made on materials with different elastic modulus (E), and a simple relationship between E and the load-depth (F-h) unloading data is presented. In order to check for the influence of other material properties, a thorough research has been performed, introducing a combination of response surface (RS) and FE analysis. As a result, a relationship between the indentation unloading slope, E, and the strain hardening exponent was derived. Also, the indenter compliance effect has been investigated. The indenter compliance correction was calculatedmore »« less

Depth profile of a time-reversal focus in an elastic solid

Journal Article Remillieux, Marcel C. ; Anderson, Brian E. ; Ulrich, T. J. ; ... April 2015 - Ultrasonics

The out-of-plane velocity component is focused on the flat surface of an isotropic solid sample using the principle of time reversal. This experiment is often reproduced in the context of nondestructive testing for imaging features near the surface of the sample. However, it is not clear how deep the focus extends into the bulk of the sample and what its profile is. In this paper, this question is answered using both numerical simulations and experimental data. The profiles of the foci are expressed in terms of the wavelengths of the dominant waves, based on the interpretation of the Lamb’s problemmore » and the use of the diffraction limit.« less
