Contact area correction for surface tilt in pyramidal nanoindentation

A correction is needed to minimize errors in contact area caused by surface tilt in nanoindentation. Surface tilt decreases the contact area calculated using standard analyses that assume the tested surface is not tilted and thus results in overestimation of hardness and elastic modulus. Both the di...
