Contributor Weinans, H.H. (mentor) Zadpoor, A.A. (mentor) Faculty Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering Department BioMechanical Engineering Programme BME Date 2013-11-29 Abstract Nanoindentation using AFM and nanoindeter was used to measure the Young's modulus of 20LP10L20-LLA40 Microspheres and Gelatin-Methacrylamide (Gelma). Three different analytical methods were used for calculating the Young's modulus of microspheres in order to compare the results and find the optimal analytical method. The Young's modulus of GelMA samples was calculated from force-displacement and creep curves. Oliver-Pharr's analytical method was used to calculate the modulus from force-displacement data and a curve fitting method developed by Oyen was used to calculate the modulus from creep data.
