Although high-speed machining offers a number of advantages over conventional machining, it is possible that the residual stress distributions generated by the former can affect the service life of the processed components. ...

In this work, the applicability of a new algorithm for the estimation of mechanical properties from instrumented indentation data was studied for thin films. The applicability was analyzed with the aid of both three-dimensional ...

This work aims at performing a numerical analysis on the indentation of elastoplastic materials. The simulations are carried out using the commercial finite element code Abaqus, employing an axisymmetric model. An important ...

The necessity to reduce the weight of transport structures, such as cars and airplanes, has become more important due to gas emission regulations. In this regard, the use of hybrid structures made of steel and aluminum is ...

The measurements of conventional indentation hardness (Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers and Knoop) are known and their methods were normalized more than 50 years ago. Their results are numbers that represent the size of the ...

An improved method of indent pairs is utilised to determine residual stresses in high speed milling specimens of AA 6082-T6 and AA 7075-T6 aluminium alloys. To carry out the measurement procedure, this approach does not ...

When abrasive particles interact with a surface, besides translational center-of-mass motion also rotational motion of the abrasive may be involved. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of the influence of the rotational ...
