Peripheral neural interfaces are used to connect the peripheral nervous system to high-tech robotic devices and computer interfaces. Soft materials are nowadays used to build the main structural part of these interfaces because they are able to mimic...
The paper analyzes the process of indentation of polymeric materials with a spherical indenter. The loading diagrams P(h) obtained experimentally and by means of finite element method (FEM) are analyzed. The material under study was high-density poly...
The application of the instrumented indentation method with a Berkovich indenter (triangular pyramid) is considered for the determination of microhardness and radiation hardening of ion-irradiated steels. The main difficulties arising in the assessme...
