Worked Example
Verified calculation
Given:
- Nominal indenter tip radius = 0.0002
- Measured flattened contact diameter after wear = 0.0001
- Radius reduction due to wear = 5.0E-7
Expected Result:
- Indenter wear compensation offset = 1.25E-9
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Indenter wear compensation offset = 1.25E-9 m.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from automatically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
indenter wear compensation offset = (2.0 * nominal indenter tip radius * (1.0 - sqrt(1.0 - pow(measured flattened contact diameter after wear / (2.0 * nominal indenter tip radius), 2.0)))) - (2.0 * (nominal indenter tip radius - radius reduction due to wear) * (1.0 - sqrt(1.0 - pow(measured flattened contact diameter after wear / (2.0 * (nominal indenter tip radius - radius reduction due to wear)), 2.0))))Formula family: formula_quality_hardness_tester_indenter_wear_compensation_offset_calculator
