Stress mapping reveals extrinsic toughening of brittle carbon fiber in polymer matrix
We conducted an in situ study on CFRP fracturing process using atomic-force-microscopy-based stress-sensitive indentation. Tensile stress distribution during fracture initiation and propagation was directly observed quantitatively.

The influence of the indenter tip-radius on indentation testing of brittle materials [PDF]
Indentation testing of a brittle material using a notionally ‘sharp’ indenter may reveal several important physical properties, including fracture toughness, surface finish information and the residual stress state. In the case of shallow cone indenters,

Temperature-Induced Internal Stress Influence on Specimens in Indentation Tests
The factors affecting the internal stress of specimens during indentation tests were investigated by finite element analysis (FEA) modelling. This was carried out to gain a qualitative understanding of the test errors introduced by the temperature ...

Indentation size effects in crystalline materials: A law for strain gradient plasticity
We show that the indentation size effect for crystalline materials can be accurately modeled using the concept of geometrically necessary dislocations. The model leads to the following characteristic form for the depth dependence of the hardness: H H 0 1+

Indentation Hardness Measurements at Macro-, Micro-, and Nanoscale: A Critical Overview
The Brinell, Vickers, Meyer, Rockwell, Shore, IHRD, Knoop, Buchholz, and nanoindentation methods used to measure the indentation hardness of materials at different scales are compared, and main issues and misconceptions in the understanding of these ...
