Abstract

Though extensively studied, hardness, defined as the resist ance of a material to deformation, still remains a challengi ng issue for a formal theoretical description due to its inherent mechani c l complexity. The widely applied Teter’s empirical corre lation between hardness and shear modulus has been considered to be not alwa ys valid for a large variety of materials. Here, inspired by t he classical work on Pugh’s modulus ratio, we develop a theoret ical model which establishes a robust correlation between h ardness and elasticity for a wide class of materials, including bulk metallic glasses, with results in very good agreement with e xperiment. The simplified form of our model also provides an unambiguous theoretical evidence for Teter’s empirical correlation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
