The impact of cold deformation, annealing temperatures and chemical assays on the mechanical properties of platinum by Trumić B., Stanković D., Ivanović A.

“…The degree of cold deformation, annealing temperature and chemical assays were tested as well as their impact on the mechanical properties of platinum. The Vickers hardness (HV) values were determined with different deformation degree, starting from annealing temperatures for platinum of different purity and tensile strength (Rm), flow limit (Rp0,2) and elongation (A) in the function of annealing temperatures and annealing time at a constant deformation degree.…”

Dynamic Fracture Toughness of TaC/CNTs/SiC CMCs Prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering by Qiaoyun Xie, Sylvanus N. Wosu

“…A high densification of 98.4% was achieved under the sintering parameter of 133°C/min, 1800°C, and 90 MPa pressure. Vickers indentation was employed to measure the indentation toughness on the polished surface of ceramic samples, SEM was applied to directly observe the crack propagation after indentation, and split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) was developed to determine the dynamic fracture toughness within the ceramic samples subjected to an impact in a three-point bending configuration.…”

The proposition of analytical expression HM�(vP/S) in microindentation pile-up deformation mode by D.-E. Semsoum�, S. Habibi, S. Benaissa, H. Merzouk�

“…An empirical expression for the determination of Martens hardness as a function of indentation load, contact stiffness, and reduced modulus of elasticity by analyzing indentation load curves has been proposed for pile-up mode strain with the corrections imposed by the tip defect, the compliance of the instrument, and the axial axisymmetry coefficient of the Vickers indenter. The results from microindentation tests on this examined ductile material show excellent agreement.…”
