Extracting mechanical properties from a small volume of material by combining nano X-ray tompgraphy, digital volume correlation and finite element modleling
(a) Scanning electron microscope image of a FIB milled micropillar (b) surface rendering of tomographic data to highlight the indentation as the impressed region. (c) Displacement field measured by digital volume
correlation of X-ray computed tomograms. (d) an example of a fitted finite element simulation to the nanoindentation experiment.
