Abstract

The Vickers micro-hardness of three different sea mollusc shell structures has been determined as a function of the indentation load. The following shells from the Adriatic Sea have been investigated: abalone (Haliotis tuberculata), smooth clam (Callista chione), and warty venus (Venus verrucosa). The results show that the measured micro-hardness depends on the load for all of the investigated seashell structures, which indicates the influence of the indentation size effect (ISE). The load dependence of micro-hardness has been analyzed by using the known Meyer's Law, the proportional specimen resistance model (PSR), and the modified proportional specimen resistance model. The best correlation between measured values and used models has been achieved by using the modified PSR model.

Kurzfassung

Für den vorliegenden Beitrag wurde die Vickers-Härte von drei verschiedenen Seemuschelstrukturen als Funktion der Eindringlast bestimmt. Hierzu wurden die folgenden Muscheln des Adriatischen Meeres untersucht: Seeohr (Haliotis tuberculata), Weiche Venusmuschel (Callista chione) und Warzige Venusmuschel (Venus verrucosa). Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die gemessene Mikrohärte bei allen untersuchten Muschelstrukturen von der aufgebrachten Last abhängt, was auf einen Einfluss der Indentorgröße (Indentation Size Effect — ISE) hinweist. Die Lastabhänigkeit der Mikrohärte wurde mittels des bekannten Meyer'schen Gesetzes, des proportionalen Probenwiderstandsmodells und dem modifizierten proprotionalen Probenwiderstandmodells analysiert. Die beste Korrelation zwischen den gemessenen Werten und den Modellierungen ergab sich für das modifizierte proportionale Probenwiderstandsmodell.
