A Perturbation-Based Method for Extracting Elastic Properties during Spherical Indentation of an Elastic Film/Substrate Bilayer
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
Accurate mechanical property measurement of films on substrates by instrumented indentation requires a solution describing the effective modulus of the film/substrate system. Here, a first-order elastic perturbation solution for spherical punch indentation on a film/substrate system is presented. Finite element method (FEM) simulations were conducted for comparison with the analytic solution. FEM results indicate that the new solution is valid for a practical range of modulus mismatch, especially for a stiff film on a compliant substrate.
