Determination of elastic-plastic and visco-plastic material properties from instrumented indentation curves
Instrumented indentation techniques at micro or nano-scales have become more popular for determining mechanical properties from small samples of material. These techniques can be used not only to obtain and to interpret the hardness of the material but also to provide information about the near surf...
