Abstract
The paper gives a brief overview of various energy approaches and possibilities they offer. Most of it is illustrated on examples from depth-sensing indentation. Components of contact work are listed, and the relationships between these components and material characteristics are given. Also the solution of impact problems is shown, based on the law of energy conservation. Finally, the role of surface energy and adhesion is mentioned.
