Metal and Thin Film Mechanics

This cluster of papers focuses on the mechanical properties, fabrication techniques, and performance evaluation of thin film coatings, particularly in the context of nanoindentation, sputtering, and tribological behavior. It covers topics such as hardness, elastic modulus, nanocomposites, and the use of advanced characterization techniques like X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
