Welcome to micromechanics’ documentation

This library allows to read datafiles from different nanoindenters and allows to analyse it by evaluating the hardness and Young’s modulus using the Oliver-Pharr method. It also includes functions for frame stiffness and area function calibration as well as a number of plotting functions. Additionally the library allows to read SEM images and optimize them

The library can read:

  • xls files from the vendors MTS, Agilent, Keysight, which produced the XP and G200 indenters

  • txt files from FischerScope

  • zip-files which include all the txt files of the Micromaterials NanoXtreme

  • HDF5 files produced by the supported converters/common format

  • Tif images from Zeiss and FEI/ThermoFischer
