In this study, the Johnson-Kendall-Roberts(JKR) theory was combined with the instrumented indentation technique (IIT) to evaluate work of adhesion and modulus of elastomeric polymer. Indentation test was used to obtain the load-displacement data for contacts between Tungsten Carbide indenter and elastomeric polymer. And the JKR contact model, contrived to take viscoelastic effects of polymer into account, was applied to compensate the contact area and the elastic modulus which Hertzian contact model would underestimate and overestimate, respectively. Besides, we could obtain the thermodynamic work of adhesion by considering the surface energy in this contact model. In order to define the relation between JKR contact area and applied load without optical measuring of contact area, we used the relation between applied load and contact stiffness by examining the correlation between JKR contact area and stiffness through dimensional analysis with 14 kinds of elastomeric polymer. From this work, it could be demonstrated that the interfacial work of adhesion and elastic modulus of compliant polymer can be obtained from a simple instrumented indentation testing without area measurement, and provided as the main algorithm of compliant polymer characterization.

Measuring the residual stress in the components in nuclear power plants is crucial to their safety evaluation. The instrumented indentation technique is a minimally invasive approach that can be conveniently used to determine the residual stress in structural materials in service. Because the indentation behavior of a structure with residual stresses is closely related to the elastic-plastic behavior of the indented material, an accurate understanding of the elastic-plastic behavior of the material is essential for evaluation of the residual stresses in the structures. However, due to the analytical problems associated with solving the elastic-plastic behavior, empirical equations with limited applicability have been used. In the present study, the impact of the non-equibiaxial residual stress state on indentation behavior was investigated using finite element analysis. In addition, a new nonequibiaxial residual-stress prediction methodology is proposed using a convolutional neural network, and the performance was validated. A more accurate residual-stress measurement will be possible by applying the proposed residual-stress prediction methodology in the future.

Modeling and FEM analysis on Boron Nitride and/or Pyrolytic Carbon coating layers on SiC fibers under indentation contact loadings are investigated. Especially this study attempts to model the mechanical behavior of the SiC fibers with and without coatings. Tyranno S grade and Tyranno LoxM grade of SiC are selected for fiber and Boron Nitride and/or Pyrolytic Carbon as coating material. The modeling is performed by SiC fiber without coating layer, which includs single(BN or PyC) and double(BN-PyC or PyC-BN) coating layer. And then the analysis is performed by changing a type of coating layer, a type of fiber and coating sequence. In this study, the concepts of modeling and analysis techniques for optimum design of BN and PyC coating process on SiC fiber are shown. Results show that stresses are reduced when indentation contact loading applies on the material having lower elastic modulus.

Continuous indentation test is a very powerful method to monitor the materials reliability since it is very simple, easy and almost non-destructive. It can provide material properties such as elastic modulus, yield strength, work-hardening exponent, etc., than the conventional hardness test. In our study, the true stress-strain curve is derived from the indentation load-depth curve. For this, average indentation strain is defined and the flow stress is obtained from the analysis of the indentation stress field. The residual stress is analyzed from the variation of the indentation behavior with the applied residual stress. And the estimation of fracture characteristic is tried by considering the conventional fracture toughness modeling and the stress/strain state under the spherical indenter.

Experimental and numerical results concerning the flat punch indentation to semi-infinite body with partially constrained free surface are presented The distributions of slip line directions are predicted by Moire fringe analysis using Vinckier's method. A mumerical study is made of the same problem by finite element method and the results are compared with the experimental results. It is shown that the contour feature of possible slip line field is similar to that of well-known Prandtl indentation sloution.

In the present study, a method for measuring the relative density by the hardness measurement was proposed for sintered metal powder compacts. It is based on the indentation force equation, by which the relative density is related with the hardness, that was obtained by the finite element analysis of rigid-ball indentation on sintered metal powder compacts. For verifying the method, it was applied to prediction of density distributions in sintered and sintered-and-forged Fe-0.5%C-2%Cu powder compacts.

재료시험기법 중 하나인 압입시험은 크리프 특성 분석에 이용될 수 있다. 그러나 많은 기존 연구들이 정상상태의 크리프 특성만을 이용하고 있기 때문에, 단축시험과 압입시험 사이에는 상당한 차이가 발생한다. 따라서 정확한 크리프 평가를 위해서는 천이 크리프 특성을 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Ogbonna 등(14)의 구형 압입자를 이용한 천이 크리프 해석을 확장, 자기 유사성을 갖는 원뿔형 압입자에 적용했다. 천이 크리프 특성을 유한요소해석을 통해 분석하여 정리하였으며, 구형 및 원뿔형 압입시험의 천이 특성을 비교했다. 또한 재료의 탄성변형률, 압입자 형상, 압입접촉면적, 대표 변형률 등 기존 평가법들에서 정량적으로 잘 고려되지 못하고 있는 부분들을 살펴보고 그 해결방안을 제시했다.

Finite element computations were carried out to study the indentation by rigid cone with half-angle of $70.3^{\circ}$ for 72 different combinations of elasto-plastic properties that cover the wide range of mechanical parameters of common engineering solid materials. The dimensional analysis and representative strain concept were used in the analysis. It was shown that for the same representative strain value, the loading curvature C can be formulated under two different forms, which are based on two alternative dimensionless functions. The present study's one is simpler than the other previously found by other authors using the similar approach. For a wide range of material's parameters, the hardness-modulus ratio should be a parabolic function of ${\sigma}E$, rather than a power law function earlier proposed.

Noninvasive radial artery pulse wave has been widely used not only for the pulse wave analysis(PWA) itself but also for assessment of arterial stiffness with estimated aortic pulse wave from peripheral pulse wave. However, it has been found that the deformation of pulse shape can be caused readily by changing measuring position, indentation pressure, and so on. So, in this study, we have developed a system which can measure radial pulse wave and skin displacement simultaneously while the indentation body goes down to occlude subject's radial artery. This system can be divided into a measuring apparatus part, an indentation control hardware part, a data acquisition part and a control and computation part. And, the measuring apparatus consists of an arm-rest, a step motor, an indentation body, a laser displacement sensor(LK-G30, Keyence Co.) and pulse wave sensor. Under load-free condition and radial artery loaded condition, the evaluation of developed system has been performed. From these results, we can conclude: 1) The developed system can control the indentation body quantitatively and the adopted laser displacement sensor shows linear output characteristic even with skin as a reflector. 2) This system can measure the pulse wave and the displacement of indentation body, that is, skin displacement simultaneously at each specific level of indentation body. 3) This system can provide the number of motor steps used to get down the indentation body, the measured skin displacement, the calculated indentation pressure, the calculated pulse pressure and the pulse waveform as well as the information generated by combining these with each others. 4) This system can reveal the relationship between the morphological changes of pulse wave and the estimated displacement of radial artery wall by indentation. Consequently, the developed system can furnish more abundant information on radial artery than previous diagnosis systems based on tonometric measurement. In further study, we expect to setup the standard measuring process and to concrete the algorithm for the estimation of radial artery's diameter and of displacement of radial artery's wall. Furthermore, with well designed clinical studies, we hope to turn out the usefulness of developed system in the field of cardiovascular system evaluation.
