Relationship of Stiffness-Based Indentation Properties Using Continuous-Stiffness-Measurement Method

The determination of elastic modulus (<i>E</i>) and hardness (<i>H</i>) relies on the accuracy of the contact area under the indenter tip, but this parameter cannot be explicitly measured during the nanoindentation process. This work presents a new approach that can derive th...
