Effects of Crystalline Anisotropy and Indenter Size on Nanoindentation by Multiscale Simulation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Nanoindentation processes in single crystal Ag thin film under different crystallographic orientations and various indenter widths are simulated by the quasicontinuum method. The nanoindentation deformation processes under influences of crystalline anisotropy and...
