Item Open Access HARDNESS MEASUREMENTS VIA AN ELLIPSOID-SHAPED INDENTER(Université de M'sila, 2016) Boudilmi, AissaIn this theoretical study, we have chosen to use a body of an ellipsoidal geometric form as an indenter, where we determined the mathematical expression of the static hardness as function of the depth and the radii of the area of projected imprint. We used the general formula of the static hardness expressed by the ratio of a force applied perpendicular on the indenter to the resulting area of the imprint; also, we have established the real imprint (cap) of an indenter of revolution ellipsoid form. Finally, geometrical and mathematical approaches have been used to derive the formula of the static hardness expression.Item Open Access A Theoretical Study of Indentation with an Oblate Spheroid Shape(Université de M'sila, 2016-08) Boudilmi, AissaIn this study, firstly we introduced general mathematical concepts related to the geometrical form of ellipse and ellipsoid. Secondly, the hardness was calculated when we used an indenter having a geometrical shape of an oblate spheroid; the mathematical expressions of static hardness were determined as functions of the applied load, the radius or the depth of the imprint area. The general static hardness formula was expressed considering the projected and the real area imprint of the oblate spheroid indenter. Thirdly mathematical assumptions were introduced in order to simplify the mirohardness and nanohardness formulas when we used the real imprint area. Finally we did a comparative study between the oblate spheroid and the spherical indenters.
