- The ability to predict tensile properties from nanoindentation data is an asset in the exploitation of materials where the gathering of tensile data is impractical or impossible. Inverse analysis is a key tool to achieve this goal but the variation of microstructure and properties on a nanoscale poses a serious challenge to the standard methodology. This paper advances an approach which accounts for local property variation in the inverse analysis enabling a significant step forward in predicting robust data. TWI are developing the technique further to enable industrial partners to produce better welded joints and improved coatings.
