AbstractIn general, the method of obtaining residual stress from indentation test requires calculating the contact area of indenter and indented material, and also needs to know yield stress of indented material in advance. In this work, the dimensional analysis of indentation loading curve was first analyzed, and then a reverse numerical procedure was explored to show a possibility of determining residual stress and yield stress of materials simultaneously from indentation test. Besides, the calculation of contact area can be also avoided.
