Estimation of surface roughness and modulus degradation due to damage by nano-indentation

The roughness of a surface influences the surface mechanical properties, such as elastic modulus, hardness and so on. In a plain strain condition, a material under deformation does not undergo change in Elastic Modulus, but when it has voids it undergoes a change in Elastic Modulus due to damage cau...
