The hardness properties of materials are tracked from early history until the present time.
Emphasis is placed on the hardness test being a useful probe for determining the local …

The nanoindentation response of a FeNiCrCoCu high-entropy alloy is explored by means of
atomistic simulations. In order to study the role of compositional complexity, we compare the …

Fundamental deformation mechanisms of FCC materials under indentation have been
probed at the grain scale. Experimental tests have been conducted on large-grained …

Pyramidal microindentation into the (001) surface of an face-centered cubic (fcc) single
crystal made of a Ni-base superalloy is analyzed in experiment and crystal plasticity finite …

We investigate by molecular dynamics simulation the mechanical behavior of concentrated
alloys under nanoindentation for the special example of single-phase fcc Fe x Ni 1-x alloys …

This work concerns analysis of Vickers and Berkovich indentation experiments through
extensive crystal plasticity finite element simulations. The simulations are performed by …

Electron channeling contrast imaging under controlled diffraction conditions (cECCI)
enables observation of crystal defects, especially dislocations, stacking faults and nano …

Using nanoindentation experiments, the material parameters of an elasto-viscoplastic
material model with non-linear isotropic and kinematic hardening are determined by …

We investigate by molecular dynamics simulation the mechanical behavior of concentrated
alloys under nanoindentation for the special example of single-phase fcc Fe x Ni 1-x alloys …

Nanoindentation revealed a number of effects, like pop-in behavior or indentation size
effects, that are very different from the classical mechanical behavior of bulk materials and …
