Thickness-Dependent Strain Rate Sensitivity of Nanolayers via the Nanoindentation Technique
The strain rate sensitivity (SRS) and dislocation activation volume are two inter-related material properties for understanding thermally-activated plastic deformation, such as creep. For face-centered-cubic metals, SRS normally increases with decreasing grain size, whereas the opposite holds for bo...
