Multiscaling of Elasticity and Cohesion Strength in Heterogeneous Composite Materials for Surface Coating Applications Using Nanoindentation and Micromechanical Analysis

A new approach is developed based on experimental nanoindentation, dimensional analysis, finite element modelling and machine learning, to predict mechanical properties of heterogeneous composites. An alternative form of scaling relationship functions and a new reverse algorithm are introduced. Th...
