Description | The local mechanical properties of Fe78Al22 alloy were studied using nanoindentation techniques. Sharp Berkovich indenter was used to perform load-controlled nanoindentation experiments on the studied sample. Hardness and elastic modulus maps were created on the basis of the indentation tests carried out in different grains. The focus of the work was to study the dependence of mechanical properties on the grain orientation. The results were in good agreement with quantum-mechanical calculations of anisotropic elastic properties of the studied alloy. It was explained that the maximum detected elastic modulus values are likely for grains with [111] crystallographic orientations which we theoretically identified as the hard ones. |
