Techniques for the determination of mechanical properties of homogenous or functionally-graded materials from indentation testing are presented. The technique is applicable to indentation on the nano-scale through the macro-scale including the geological scale. The technique involves creating a predictive...http://www.google.es/patents/US5999887?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatente US5999887 - Method and apparatus for determination of mechanical properties of functionally-graded materials
