For the problem that the value of test force will influence the result of instrumented indentation hardness test, the relation between test force and instrumented indentation hardness , indentation modulus were investigated. 55 groups of tests were carried out, in which the test force were divided to 11 different levels. On the basis of 110 test data, differences were analyzed and the relation curves were plotted by Origin. And the relative difference value was proposed. Results show that when 19.61N≤Fmax≤98.07N, the change of test force makes little influence on instrumented indentation test (IIT) results and coefficient of variation(CV); when 0.98N≤Fmax≤9.81N or 196.14N≤Fmax≤294.21N, the change of test force makes remarkable influence on IIT results and CV.

ABSTRACTThe present work is concerned with the analysis of elastic unloading data in conventional methods of analysis of nanoindentation test data. Experimental and finite element results are used to show that the reloading of a residual impression with and without the presence of residual stress is an elastic event, and further shows that the estimation of modulus and hardness computed using established techniques is in error due to the assumption the sides of the residual impression are straight. This work calls into question the validity of commonly used methods of test and analysis of instrumented indentation test data that use the elastic unloading data as the basis for the calculation of modulus and hardness of the specimen material.
