Abstract
Based on dimensional analysis and finite element simulation, a new method is proposed to characterize the yield stress and interfacial coefficient of friction of materials by scratching with a Vickers indenter. Two simple equations are obtained: one is for determining the interfacial coefficient of friction between the scratched material and scratch tip via the ratio of tangential to normal force, and the other is for calculating the yield stress of scratched material with the groove width and normal force. In a case study, the method is applied to soda-lime and borosilicate glasses. It is shown that the measured results of yield stress and interfacial coefficient of friction between glasses and a diamond tip are consistent with that obtained by other methods, with a high accuracy. The quick and accurate determination of yield stress and interfacial friction coefficient provides important information for the design and processing of glass products.
