2. Vickers hardness test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vickers_hardness_test

   The Vickers hardness test was developed in 1921 by Robert L. Smith and George E. Sandland at Vickers Ltd as an alternative to the Brinell method to measure the hardness of materials. [1] The Vickers test is often easier to use than other hardness tests since the required calculations are independent of the size of the indenter, and the indenter ...

4. Hardness comparison - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness_comparison

   A variety of hardness-testing methods are available, including the Vickers, Brinell, Rockwell, Meyer and Leeb tests. Although it is impossible in many cases to give an exact conversion, it is possible to give an approximate material-specific comparison table for steels .

5. Superhard material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superhard_material

   Vickers test scheme An indentation left in case-hardened steel after a Vickers hardness test. The hardness of a material is directly related to its incompressibility, elasticity and resistance to change in shape. A superhard material has high shear modulus, high bulk modulus, and does not deform plastically. Ideally superhard materials should ...

6. Mechanical testing - Wikipedia

   Janka hardness test, for wood; Meyer hardness test; Rockwell hardness test (HR), principally used in the USA; Shore durometer hardness, used for polymers; Barcol hardness test, for composite materials; Tensile testing, used to obtain the stress-strain curve for a material, and from there, properties such as Young modulus, yield (or proof ...

7. Hardened steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardened_steel

   This is the most common state for finished articles such as tools and machine parts. In contrast, the same steel composition in annealed state is softer, as required for forming and machining . Depending on the temperature and composition of the steel, it can be hardened or softened.

9. Ceramography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramography

   The hardness of a material can be measured in many ways. The Knoop hardness test, a method of microindentation hardness, is the most reproducible for dense ceramics. The Vickers hardness test and superficial Rockwell scales (e.g., 45N) can also be used, but tend to cause more surface damage than Knoop. The Brinell test is suitable for ductile ...
