NEW APPROACH TO STRESS-STRAIN CURVE PREDICTION USING BALL INDENTATION TEST
Brumek, J. ; Strnadel, B. ; Dlouhý, Ivo
This work is concerned with the method for predicting stress-strain behavior of material using instrumented indentation technique. High strength low alloy steel with different thermal treatment was taken into the analysis. Heat treatment for the steel was performed to obtain different mechanical properties. Assessment of mechanical properties was done by using inverse technique of the finite element analysis. The results were confronted with conventional test parameters and prediction procedure defined such Automated Ball Indentation Technique (ABIT). Comparison of the material curves shows good agreement with tensile test properties which makes this non-destructive method suitable for industrial application.

Young's Modulus on the Interface of Elastic and Elastic-Plastic Material
Kocmanová, Lenka ; Haušild, P. ; Materna, A. ; Matějíček, Jiří
The paper is aimed at determining the Young's modulus at the sharp interface between two materials, where one material is elastic and the other elastic-plastic. To determine the Young's modulus was used 3D numerical model of nanoindentation with conical indenter. The interface between the materials with the normal plane perpendicular to the direction of penetration. The goal is to simulate the combination of metal and ceramic materials.\n Young modulus according to the standardized distance from the interface are approximated inverse beta distribution and is determined by the relation between parameters inverse beta distribution of the size of the area affected by the second phase

Structural and Mechanical Characterization of Spark Plasma Sintered Tungsten
Čech, J. ; Haušild, P. ; Kocmanová, Lenka ; Matějíček, Jiří
The main objective of this paper is to describe the microstructure and mechanical properties of spark plasma sintered tungsten. The indentation tests, which are very advantageous because of their semi-nondestructive character and low requirements on the volume of investigated material, were carried out using Berkovich and spherical indenters. Indentation techniques with spherical indenters are less frequently used than those with sharp indenters but they offer variation of strain with the indentation depth and, therefore, they could be used for determination of stress-strain curves. Local stress-strain behavior obtained by this method showed good correspondence with the results of compression tests. Observation of the microstructure and the fracture surfaces helped to explain some phenomena which occurred during the mechanical testing

Ageing evaluation of the heterogeneous weld joint based on instrumented indentation
Dlouhý, Ivo ; Hadraba, Hynek ; Stodola, M. ; Čupera, Pavel
Hardness measurement analyses are presented in the report being focused on base materials of heterogeneous weld joint and its simulated ageing. The change of the instrumented indentation/hardness data is analysed across the weld joint from low carbon steel to highly alloyed weld metal. Methodology for parameter computing of the material characteristics is also described based on data of instrumented indentation tests. The raw data have been supplied also to be available for further development of the methodology.

Mechanical properties evaluation by means of instrumented indentation test
Brumek, J. ; Strnadel, B. ; Dlouhý, Ivo
An instrumented indentation study focusing on the materials with non-linear stress-strain behavior is presented. Indentation tests were applied on steel R7T. The observed data were analyzed and mechanical properties, such as yield stress, strain hardening exponent and elastic modulus were assessed. Experimental results of load-indentation depth test were compared with FEM solution. FEM analysis was applied on two-dimensional model described by elastic-plastic elements. Presented approach to prediction of mechanical characteristics is useful for estimation of remanent lifre of steels and other materials by using indentation method.
