De la contraportada

Research in the area of nanoindentation has gained significant momentum in recent years, but there are very few books currently available which can educate researchers on the application aspects of this technique in various areas of materials science.

Applied Nanoindentation in Advanced Materials addresses this need and is a comprehensive, self-contained reference covering applied aspects of nanoindentation in advanced materials. With contributions from leading researchers in the field, this book is divided into two parts. Part one covers innovations and analysis, and part two examines the application and evaluation of soft and ceramic-like materials respectively.

Key features:

• A one stop solution for scholars and researchers to learn applied aspects of nanoindentation
• Contains contributions from leading researchers in the field
• Includes the analysis of key properties that can be studied using the nanoindentation technique
• Covers recent innovations
• Includes worked examples

Applied Nanoindentation in Advanced Materials is an ideal reference for researchers and practitioners working in the areas of nanotechnology and nanomechanics, and is also a useful source of information for graduate students in mechanical and materials engineering, and chemistry. This book also contains a wealth of information for scientists and engineers interested in mathematical modelling and simulations related to nanoindentation testing and analysis.
