ClearAtomistic Studies of Nanoindentation—A Review of Recent Advances
This review covers advances in using computer simulations to understand how materials deform at the nanoscale during nanoindentation testing. The research is in materials science and not directly related to environmental microplastics.
Small-Scale Mechanical Testing of Cemented Carbides from the Micro- to the Nano-Level: A Review
This overview reviews small-scale mechanical testing techniques applied to cemented carbide materials at the micro and nano scale. It is an advanced materials characterization paper unrelated to environmental microplastics.
Advances on in situ TEM mechanical testing techniques: a retrospective and perspective view
This paper is not about microplastics; it reviews advances in in situ transmission electron microscopy techniques for observing how materials deform under mechanical stress at the nanoscale.
The Instrumented Indentation Test: An Aiding Tool for Material Science and Industry
This review examines instrumented indentation testing — a method for measuring the mechanical properties of materials by pressing a hard tip into their surface. The technique is useful for characterizing plastics, metals, and other engineering materials without destroying the sample.
Macro-, Micro- and Nanomechanical Characterization of Crosslinked Polymers with Very Broad Range of Mechanical Properties
This study compared the mechanical properties of crosslinked polymer networks at macro, micro, and nanoscale, finding that properties measured at different scales are highly correlated in well-defined systems. This materials science research is relevant to understanding how plastic polymers fracture and fragment under mechanical stress, a key step in microplastic formation.
Evaluation of Fracture Toughness Measurements Using Chevron-Notched Silicon and Tungsten Microcantilevers
Researchers evaluated methods for measuring the fracture toughness of small samples of tungsten, a brittle material used in nuclear applications. This is a materials engineering study with no relevance to environmental microplastics.
Investigation of Indenter-Size-Dependent Nanoplasticity of Silicon by Molecular Dynamics Simulation
This study used molecular dynamics simulations to investigate how indenter size affects the nanoscale plastic deformation of silicon. It is a materials science study on nanomechanics and is not related to environmental microplastics.
Metal structures diagnosis by truncated cone indentation
This engineering paper presents a nondestructive testing method using truncated cone indentation to assess the mechanical properties of steel structures in the field. It is an engineering methods paper with no direct connection to microplastics or environmental health.
