The method has been developed for calculating microhardness values under different loads, with known macro-hardness as well as with macro-hardness and microhardness with a single microhardness value, based on comparing the size of non-recovered and recovered imprints – imprints method (IM). The method correctness test for different materials in a wide range of hardness values –80 … 1500 HV, at different indentation loads, was performed. High accuracy of the developed method is shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
