Introduction to instrumented indentation
• A special form of indentation hardness testing where load
vs. displacement data is collected continuously
• The resulting load-displacement data can be used to
determine the plastic and elastic properties of the material
• Commonly used to test the elastic properties of a material,
especially at a small scale  “nanoindentation”

Nanoindentation Equations
• The reduced modulus of contact between two
materials is a function of the Young’s moduli:
• Sneddon’s equation relates the reduced modulus of a
contact to the contact stiffness and contact area:

Sneddon, 1948
W.C. Oliver and G.M. Pharr (1992).
Motivation / Problem Statement
• Sneddon’s equation was derived for contact between a
rigid indenter and a “semi-infinite half space”
• We want to model the elastic portion of an indentation in
ANSYS so that we can vary dimensional parameters to see
how they affect the accuracy of Sneddon’s equation

Solid Body Contact
•
•
•
Assume: strains are small, materials are elastic, surfaces are frictionless
Contact – is a changing-status nonlinearity. The stiffness, depends on
whether the parts are touching or separated
We establish a relationship between the two surfaces to prevent them from
passing through each other in the analysis termed, contact compatibility

Normal Lagrange Formulation
• Adds an extra degree of freedom
(contact pressure) to satisfy
contact compatibility
• Contact force is solved for
explicitly instead of using stiffness
and penetration
• Enforces zero/nearly-zero
penetration with pressure DOF
• Only applies to forces in directions
Normal to contact surface
• Direct solvers are used

Penalty-Based Formulations
• Concept of contact stiffness knormal is used
in both
• The higher the contact stiffness, the lower
the penetration
• As long as xpenetration is small or negligible,
the solution results will be accurate
• The Augmented Lagrange method is less
sensitive to the magnitude of the contact
stiffness knormal because of λ (pressure)

• Allows you to choose the
location of contact detection in
order to obtain convergence
• Normal Lagrange uses Nodal
Detection, resulting in fewer
points
• Pure Penalty and Augmented
Lagrange use Gauss point
detection, resulting in more
detection points

ANSYS Contact Stiffness
•
•
Normal stiffness can be automatically adjusted during the solution to
enhance convergence at the end of each iteration
The Normal Contact Stiffness knormal is the most important parameter
affecting accuracy and convergence behavior
– Large value of stiffness gives more accuracy, but problem may be
difficult to converge
– If knormal is too large, the model may oscillate, contact surfaces
would bounce off each other

Conclusion
• Indentation can be accurately modeled using
ANSYS and a well-refined mesh
• The validity of Sneddon’s equation has been
explored:
– Lower pressure  More accurate
– Larger sample  More accurate
– More compliant sample  More accurate
