Journal ArticleDOI

An improved long-term nanoindentation creep testing approach for studying the local deformation processes in nanocrystalline metals at room and elevated temperatures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the strain-rate sensitivity of ultrafine-grained aluminum (Al) and nanocrystalline nickel (Ni) with an improved nanoindentation creep method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fracture toughness of silicon nitride thin films of different thicknesses as measured by bulge tests

TL;DR: In this paper, a bulge test setup was used to determine the fracture toughness of amorphous low-pressure chemical vapor deposited (LPCVD) silicon nitride films with various thicknesses in the range 40-108nm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of modulus-to-hardness ratio and harmonic parameters on continuous stiffness measurement during nanoindentation

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that a bias occurring during signal processing by the lock-in amplifier can result in a significant underestimation of the contact stiffness and hence the elastic modulus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effective usage of 2D MXene nanosheets as solid lubricant – Influence of contact pressure and relative humidity

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of contact pressure and relative humidity on friction and wear performance of Ti3C2Tx-nanosheets was investigated in higher loaded steel/steel dry sliding contacts.
