Homework SourseWhat differences when comparing Vickers indents on steel and
Solution
Difference between Vickers indent on steel and aluminum for the same load
1). Indent size on steel is less than aluminum as aluminum is less harder than steel
2). Vikers Number is less for aluminum with the steel as it is inversely propotional to the square of the indent size.
3). Stiffness,Hardness and Toughness of steel and aluminum can be determine by the Vickers hardness test.
4). Vickers indentation curves will help in the finding information about plasticity and elasticity of materials.
5). Vickers indentation fracture testing can be perform for both steel and aluminum.
6). In Vickers indentation fracture toughness test Vickers indent play a big role in case of steel.
7). Depth-sensing indentation equipment is generally used for the Vickers indent.
8). In Vickers indent method pyramid-indentation technique is always used as it is much efficient than other methods.
9). In Vickers indent method many defect are arise in case of aluminum as compared to the steel.
10).Cracks and fracture are arises when the hard testing of specimen of the steel is performed
