3. Indentation hardness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_hardness

   Brinell hardness test (HB) BHN and HBW are widely used [7] Knoop hardness test (HK), for measurement over small areas, widely used to test glass or ceramic material. [8] Janka hardness test, for wood; Meyer hardness test; Rockwell hardness test (HR), principally used in the USA. HRA, HRB and HRC scales are most widely used.

4. 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 ...

5. Shore durometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_durometer

   The basic test requires applying the force in a consistent manner, without shock, and measuring the hardness (depth of the indentation). If a timed hardness is desired, force is applied for the required time and then read. The material under test should be a minimum of 6 mm (0.25 inches) thick. [3]

6. 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 .

7. Janka hardness test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test

   For hardwood flooring, the test usually requires an 80 mm × 150 mm (3 in × 6 in) sample with a thickness of at least 6–8 mm, and the most commonly used test is the ASTM D1037. When testing wood in lumber form, the Janka test is always carried out on wood from the tree trunk (known as the heartwood), and the standard sample (according to ...

8. Berkovich tip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkovich_tip

   A Berkovich tip is a type of nanoindenter tip used for testing the indentation hardness of a material. It is a three-sided pyramid which is geometrically self-similar. The popular Berkovich now has a very flat profile, with a total included angle of 142.3° and a half angle of 65.27°, measured from the axis to one of the pyramid flats.

9. Persoz pendulum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persoz_pendulum

   A Persoz pendulum is a device used for measuring hardness of materials. The instrument consists of a pendulum which is free to swing on two balls resting on a coated test panel. The pendulum hardness test is based on the principle that the amplitude of the pendulum's oscillation will decrease more quickly when supported on a softer surface. The ...
