AbstractA much better understanding of the contact mechanics can be obtained through finite element modeling. The experimentally determined tip shape function was included to reproduce the same contact area for a given contact depth as in the experiment. The fundamental material properties affecting pile-up are the ratio of the effective modulus to yield stress Eeff/Y and the work hardening rate.

AbstractDual ion implantation of titanium and carbon was shown to produce an amorphous surface layer in annealed bulk nickel, in electroformed Ni, and in electroformed Ni7 5Fe 2 5. Diamond-tip nanoindentation coupled with finite-element modeling quantified the elastic and plastic mechanical properties of the implanted region. The amorphized matrix, with a thickness of about 100 nm, has a yield stress of approximately 6 GP and an intrinsic hardness near 16 GPa, exceeding by an order of magnitude the corresponding values for annealed bulk Ni. Implications for micro-electromechanical systems are discussed.

AbstractWe present a methodology based on finite-element modeling of nanoindentation data to extract reliable and accurate mechanical properties from thin, hard films and surface-modified layers on softer substrates. The method deduces the yield stress, Young's modulus, and hardness from indentations as deep as 50% of the layer thickness.

To assist in developing a database of wood material properties for the finite element modeling of wood baseball bats, Charpy impact testing at strain rates comparable to those that a wood bat experiences during a bat/ball collision is completed to characterize the failure energy and strain-to-failure as a function of density and slope-of-grain (SoG) for northern white ash (Fraxinus americana) and sugar maple (Acer saccharum). Un-notched Charpy test specimens made from billets of ash and maple that span the range of densities and SoGs that are approved for making professional baseball bats are impacted on either the edge grain or face grain. High-speed video is used to capture each test event and image analysis techniques are used to determine the strain-to-failure for each test. Strain-to-failure as a function of density relations are derived and these relations are used to calculate inputs to the *MAT_WOOD (Material Model 143) and *MAT_EROSION material options in LS-DYNA for the subsequent finite element modeling of the ash and maple Charpy Impact tests and for a maple bat/ball impact. The Charpy test data show that the strain-to-failure increases with increasing density for maple but the strain-to-failure remains essentially constant over the range of densities considered in this study for ash. The flat response of the ash data suggests that ash-bat durability is less sensitive to wood density than maple-bat durability. The available SoG results suggest that density has a greater effect on the impact failure properties of the wood than SoG. However, once the wood begins to fracture, SoG plays a large role in the direction of crack propagation of the wood, thereby determining if the shape of the pieces breaking away from the bat are fairly blunt or spear-like. The finite element modeling results for the Charpy and bat/ball impacts show good correlation with the experimental data.

Reverse Analysis

In order to explore more mechanical properties of zeolite Ferrierite (FER) single crystal, a method of determining its mechanical properties—nanoindentation reverse analysis—was obtained based on the nanoindentation experiment and numerical simulations, and this will be presented in this paper. The yield stress and the characteristic work-hardening rate were gained if its stress-strain relation was a bilinear constitutive relation. The mechanical parameters obtained by reverse analysis have been compared with ones gained by nanoindentation finite-element numerical simulations.

Miniature disk bending test is used to evaluate the mechanical behavior of irradiated materials and its properties — mainly ductility loss due to irradiation in steel. In Miniature Disk Bending Machine the specimen is firmly held between the two horizontal jaws of punch, and an indentor with spherical ball travels vertically. Researchers have observed reasonable correlations between values of the yield stress, strain hardening and ultimate tensile strength estimated from this test and mechanical properties determined from the uniaxial tensile test. Some methods for the analysis of miniature disk bending, proposed by various authors have been discussed in the paper. It is difficult to distinguish between the regimes of elastic and plastic deformation since local plastic deformation occurs for very small values of load when the magnitude of spatially averaged stress will be well below the yield stress. Also, the analytical solution for large amplitude, plastic deformation becomes rather unwieldy. Hence a finite element analysis has been carried out. The finite element model, considers contact between the indentor and test specimen, friction between various pairs of surfaces and elastic plastic behavior. The load is increased in steps and converged solution has been obtained and analysis terminated at a load beyond which a stable solution cannot be obtained. A sensitivity study has been carried out by varying the various parameters defining the material properties by ±10% around the base values. This study has been carried out to generate a data base for the load-deflection characteristics of similar materials from which the material properties can be evaluated by an inverse calculation. It is seen that the deflection obtained by analytical elastic bending theory is significantly lower than that obtained by the elasto-plastic finite element solution at relatively small values of load. The FE solution and experimental results are in reasonably good agreement.

Pile Up

Hardness and elastic modulus of micromaterials can be evaluated by analyzing instrumented sharp-tip-indentation load–depth curves. The present study quantified the effects of tip-blunting and pile-up or sink-in on the contact area by analyzing indentation curves. Finite-element simulation and theoretical modeling were used to describe the detailed contact morphologies. The ratio f of contact depth, i.e., the depth including elastic deflection and pile-up and sink-in, to maximum indentation depth, i.e., the depth measured only by depth sensing, ignoring elastic deflection and pile-up and sink-in, was proposed as a key indentation parameter in evaluating real contact depth during indentation. This ratio can be determined strictly in terms of indentation-curve parameters, such as loading and unloading slopes at maximum depth and the ratio of elastic indentation energy to total indentation energy. In addition, the value of f was found to be independent of indentation depth, and furthermore the real contact area can be determined and hardness and elastic modulus can be evaluated from f. This curve-analysis method was verified in finite-element simulations and nanoindentation experiments.
