Molecular Dynamics MD simulations of indentation and scratching have been conducted on single crystal aluminum in various Ž . crystal orientations and directions of scratching to investigate the anisotropy in hardness and friction. Depending on the crystal orientation, the atoms near the surface are found to be disturbed to different degrees due to repulsive forces between them as the indenter approaches the workmaterial. The hardness is found to increase significantly as the indentation depth is reduced to atomic dimensions. The calculated values of hardness are found to be an order of magnitude higher and close to theoretical strength than the corresponding Ž . engineering values which can be expected considering the size effect possible at indentation depths of a few nanometers or less. It thus appears that at very low depths of indentation or nanoindentation , the plastic deformation underneath the indenter is governed by the Ž . theoretical yield strength of the material. The anisotropy in hardness and friction coefficient of single crystal aluminum with different crystal orientations and scratch directions is found to be in the range of 29%, which is close to the value of its anisotropy in the elastic range 21.9% stiffest in 111 and least stiff in 100 R.W.

Among the orientations investigated, hardness is x maximum in 001 100 and minimum in 012 221 . Friction coefficient values are found to be higher 0.6–0.9 with the maximum along Ž .w x Ž .w x Ž .

The minimum w x Ž .wx wx and the maximum scratch hardness are observed with 111 110 and 111 211 crystal orientations. Although, similarities are found Ž .w x Ž .w x between nanoindentation and scratching, and nanometric cutting, the rake angle effect is found to be dominated by the large negative rake angle presented by the indenter in the former case. q 2000 Elsevier Science S.A.
