Extract

In light of recent advances in the analysis of depth-sensing indentation data and of the importance of this technique in the study of the mechanical properties of thin films, a special discussion session was held in order to explore the state of the art and to provide an informal forum for discussion. This is a brief review of that discussion. The discussion was focused by the four main sources of deviation from model behavior described in the previous paper.
