Abstract
Abstract – This paper details work carried out to determine the influence of indenter geometry on measured hardness values for both Vickers and Rockwell hardness methods. For Vickers Hardness, the effect of indenter angle is quantified, and for Rockwell Hardness, the effect of varying both cone angle and tip radius is investigated.
