Recent advances in materials for structural applications have pushed the need for mechanical testing at the micro and nanoscale. This workshop aims to introduce the emerging techniques in the field of in-situ micron scale testing with special emphasis on nanoindentation and micropillar compression. The basics of nanoindentation will be introduced. Case studies of in-situ mechanical tests will be presented to cover not only hardness and modulus measurements but also emerging experimental techniques that enable extraction of fracture toughness, time dependent plasticity (creep, relaxation and strain rate sensitivity) and fatigue properties at the micron scale.
