Understanding Indentation and Scratch Tests Using Computer Modeling
Description
Ongoing miniaturization of thin films and coatings requires new characterization tools and methods.  Because experimental measurements alone are not sufficient to characterize mechanical properties of materials, we use finite-element (computer) modeling to extend our understanding of indentation and scratch tests.
