- Introduction
- The conference will bring together all people working in the field of nano- and micromechanical testing in materials research. It will provide a forum for discussion of the latest activities in application of nano- and micromechanical testing methods. This conference will be a follow-up meeting to the ECI conference on Instrumented Indentation Testing (Fodele Beach, Crete from October 9 - 14, 2005) and Nanomechanical Testing (Barga - Tuscany, Italy from October 11 - 16, 2009
The major topics to be discussed are:
Fundamental studies in indentation testing (size effects, phase transformations...)
FIB/lithography based nano- and micromechanical testing
In situ techniques (synchrotron, electron microscopy...)
Deformation mechanisms
Modelling with focus on molecular dynamics, discrete dislocation dynamics and crystal plasticity
Novel preparation methods for micro- and nanoscale objects
Testing of nanostructures, thin films and coatings
Fatigue and fracture testing
Polymeric and biomaterials
Testing of metals, ceramics and composites
Testing at higher temperature and different environments
