This Matlab toolbox has been developed to plot and to analyze mechanical properties maps from (nano)indentation results .
To get started with the TriDiMap toolbox, clone the repository, then run Matlab, and cd into the folder containing this README file.
You can start the launcher by typing "demo" at the Matlab command prompt.
The TriDiMap toolbox has been developed to plot, to map and to analyze (nano)indentation dataset.
- With this Matlab toolbox, it is possible:
- to map (in 2D or 3D), to interpolate and to smooth indentation map;
- to plot elastic modulus vs hardness values;
- to plot and to fit probability density functions;
- to plot and to fit cumulative density functions;
- to extract statistical values (mean, min, max with standard deviations) of mechanical properties and fractions for each phase;
- to correct mechanical map from image correlation with microstructural map;
- to correlate/compare mechanical map with microstructural map;
- to plot 4D mechanical property map.
Developed with Matlab R2014a.
