The entire stress-strain curve can now be determined using nanoindentation with a flat-ended cylindrical punch and novel analysis of the resulting force-displacement data 1. Unlike pyramidal indenters ...

In Session 22 of the KLA Instruments Indentation University series, recent advances in nanoindentation techniques can be used to measure the entire stress-strain curve, even within a single metal ...

This image shows comparisons of true stress-strain curve for Al between the calculated and experimental results at different temperatures. (a) Low temperature; (b) high temperature.

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. However, this relationship between stress and strain in a material is linear only when the force applied is within ...
