文摘Based on load-displacement curves,indentation is widely used to extract the elastoplastic properties of materials.It is generally believed that such a measure is non-unique and a full stress-strain curve cannot be obtained using plural sharp and deep spherical indenters.In this paper we show that by introducing an additional dimensionless function of A/A (the ratio of residual area to the area of an indenter profile) in the reverse analysis,the elastoplastic properties of several unknown materials that exhibit visually indistinguishable load-displacement curves can be uniquely determined with a sharp indentation.
