Abstract
The study of polymer/clay nanocomposites has attracted major research and commercial interests due to their superior mechanical and thermal properties to those of the neat polymers. The present work is to modelling the spherical nanoindentation of exfoliated polymer /clay nanocomposite that has nonlinear elastic behavior using numerical simulation. A two dimensional simulation is done and the effect of friction coefficient and indenter radius on load-displacement curve is investigated. It is observed that the simulation results of nanoindentation do not depend on the friction coefficient of indenter and specimen significantly.
