Abstract

The blunt tip geometry of the so-called nanoindenter is modeled by a spherical cap of various radii. The relation between area and penetration depth of the indenter is comparable with experimental results if the radius of the tip is about 1.0 μm. Simulation of indentation tests was carried out using the finite element method by incremental loading and unloading based on a continuum model. Good agreement with the experimental results for nickel is obtained also for a tip radius of 1.0 μm.
