최근 나노기술의 발달과 더불어 나노재료에 대한 특성평가 요구가 높아지고 있고, 따라서 나노스케일로 재료의 기계적 거동을 분석할 수 있는 나노인덴테이션 기법이 심도있게 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 나노인덴테이션을 이용하여 여러 가지 재료의 탄성 소성 변형 거동을 관찰 조사하고 이를 다시 유한요소법(FEM)으로 모사하여 해석하였다. 나노인덴테이션으로 재료 표면에 압입하여 탄소성 변형을 일으켰으며 이때의 가하중과 변형깊이를 측정하여 하중-변형 곡선을 얻었다. 매우 작은 접촉응력 조건하에서는 탄성변형의 비율이 매우 높았는데 하중-변형 곡선으로부터 재료의 나노 경도와 탄성 계수값을 얻을 수 있었다. 실험적으로 얻은 하중-변형 곡선을 3 차원의 유한요소법(FEM)을 이용하여 모사하였는데 상호간에 매우 근접한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이 때 압자의 모양, 압입 깊이, 재료의 종류, 둥을 변수로 하여 여러 가지 조건하에서 압입실험을 하였으며 그 결과를 유한요소법으로 모사하였다.

나노인덴테이션은 시편에 압자를 침투시켜 재료의 기계적 특성을 파악할 수 있는 경도시험법이다. 압입범위를 나노미터범위로 조절할 수 있어 기존에 접근할 수 없었던 극 미소부분에로 응용이 넓어지고 있다. 경도시험시 재료의 탄성 및 소성 작용에 의해 재료는 변형되고, 표면변화 관찰을 통해 표면아래 부분에서 이루어지고 있는 거동을 예측할 수 있다. 이러한 관점에서 나노인덴테이션 시험시에도 발생하는 파일업과 싱크인 현상에서 재료가 나노미터 범위에서 어떠한 양상으로 변형을 하는지를 고찰하는 것은 의미가 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서 파일업과 싱크인의 양상을 파악하고 그 양을 정량화하기 위하여 가공경화양에 따른 표면변화와 압입하중 변화에 따른 표면변화를 관찰하였다. 어닐링한 봉상 알루미늄을 압축변형을 0%, 5%, 20%, 40%, 50% 로 변형시켜 가공경화를 일으켰고, 표면은 전해연마하여 나노압입시험이 가능하도록 하였다. 각각의 시편을 나노인덴테이션 압입하중을 변화시켜 재료에서 하중 변화에 따라 나타나는 표면변화를 관찰하였고, 위의 각 조건에서 파일업양을 정량화 하였다. 연구결과에 대해 ANSYS 유한요소분석 프로그램을 사용하여 재료의 변형양상을 시뮬레이션 하였고, 실제 실험데이터와 비교 분석하였다.

This study proposes the deconvolution method for the nanoindentation test results of geopolymer employing the Gaussian mixture model. Geopolymer has been studied extensively as an alternative construction material because it emits relatively lower CO₂ compared to ordinary Portland cement. Geopolymer is made of aluminosilicate and alkaline solution, and the Si/Al molar ratio affects its mechanical properties. Previous studies revealed that the Si/Al molar ratio of 1.8~2.0 results in the highest compressive strength, and the Si/Al molar ratio over 1.8 degrades the compressive strength of geopolymer severely; however the reason for the compressive strength degradation is still unclear. To understand the effect of the Si/Al molar ratio on the geopolymer structure, this study exploits the nanoindentation. The phase deconvolution of the indent modulus data is successful using the Gaussian mixture model, and it is observed that the Si/Al molar ratio alters the homogeneity of the geopolymer. Geopolymer becomes more homogeneous up to an Si/Al molar ratio of 1.8 at which geopolymer exhibits the highest compressive strength. The examination of this study is assumed to be adopted as evidence of strength degradation by the Si/Al ratio higher than the optimum value.

,In this paper, the symmetric axis parameter method, which was proposed to identify defects, dislocations and stacking fault, with perfect structures in the zinc-blende materials, was introduced as a way to distinguish between elastic and plastic deformation. LAMMPS, a molecular dynamics programme of Sandia National Laboratories, was used to perform nanoindentation simulation on silicon, a zinc-blende material. Defects in silicon (111) under spherical indentation showed the threefold pattern and the slip system in the form of ring crack. Also simulation results show good agreement with experimental results and existing theoretical analyses.

In this study, to achieve the optimal conditions for mechanical hyper-fine pattern fabrication process, deformation behavior of the materials during indentation was studied with numerical method by ABAQUS S/W. Brittle materials (Si, Pyrex glass) were used as specimens, and forming conditions to reduce the elastic restoration and pile-up was proposed. The indenter was modeled a rigid surface. Minimum mesh sizes of specimens are 1-10nm Comparison between the experimental data and numerical result demonstrated that the finite element approach is capable of reproducing the loading-unloading behavior of a nanoindentation test. The result of the investigation will be applied to the fabrication of the hyper-fine pattern.

This study was designed to investigate the mechanical properties of the coating layer on electronic galvanized sheet steel as a part of the ongoing research on the coated steel. Those properties were determined using nano-indentation, the finite element method, and artificial neural networks. First and foremost, the load-displacement curve (the loading-unloading curve) of coatings was derived from a nano-indentation test by CSM (continuous stiffness measurement) and was used to measure the elastic modulus and hardness of the coating layer. The properties derived were applied in FE simulations of a nano-indentation test, and the analytical results were compared with the experimental result. A numerical model for FE simulations was established for the coating layer and the substrate separately. Finally, to determine the mechanical properties of the coating, such as the stress-strain curve, functional equations of loading and unloading curves were introduced and computed using the neural networks method. The results show errors within $5\%$ in comparison with the load-displacement measured by a nano-indentation test.

In this study, to achieve the optimal conditions for mechanical hyper-fine pattern fabrication process, deformation behavior of the materials during indentation scratch test was studied with numerical method by ABAQUS S/W. Brittle materials (Si, Pyrex glass 7740) were used as specimens, and forming conditions to reduce the elastic recovery and pile-up were proposed. The indenter was modeled as a rigid surface. Minimum mesh sizes of specimens are 1-l0nm. Variables of the nanoindentation scratch test analysis are scratching speed, scratching load, tip radius and tip geometry. The nano-indentation scratch tests were performed by using the Berkovich pyramidal diamond indenter. Comparison between the experimental data and numerical result demonstrated that the FEM approach can be a good model of the nanoindentation scratch test. The result of the investigation will be applied to the fabrication of the hyper-fine pattern.
