Title: Studies on Nano-Indentation of Polymeric Thin Films Using Finite Element Methods
Author: Shen, Xiaojun; Yi, Sung; Anand, Lallit; Zeng, Kaiyang
Issue Date: 2002-01
Abstract: In this paper, the numerical simulation for nano-indentation is performed to measure time-dependent behavior of polymeric films. The possibility to extract the relaxed shear modulus of the polymer is evaluated using a rigid ball indenter. The viscoelastic behavior of the polymer was represented by the standard model. The effects of Poisson’s ratio are also discussed.
