Small Scale Deformation Using Advanced Nanoindentation Techniques - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Small scale mechanical deformations have gained a significant interest over the past few decades, driven by the advances in integrated circuits and microelectromechanical systems. One of the most powerful and versatile characterization methods is the nanoindentation technique. The capabilities of these depth-sensing instruments have been improved considerably. They can perform experiments in vacuum and at high temperatures, such as in-situ SEM and TEM nanoindenters. This allows researchers to visualize mechanical deformations and dislocations motion in real time. Time-dependent behavior of soft materials has also been studied in recent research works. This Special Issue on "Small Scale Deformation using Advanced Nanoindentation Techniques"; will provide a forum for researchers from the academic and industrial communities to present advances in the field of small scale contact mechanics. Materials of interest include metals, glass, and ceramics. Manuscripts related to deformations of biomaterials and biological related specimens are also welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    Small scale facture

    Nanoscale plasticity and creep

    Size-dependent deformation phenomena

    Deformation of biological cells

    Mechanical properties of cellular and sub-cellular components

    Novel mechanical properties characterization techniques

    New modeling methods

    Environmentally controlled nanoindentation

    In-situ SEM and TEM indentation
