0521467ArolaThe objective of this proposal is to acquire a nanoindentor for characterizing the material properties of specific tissues, biomaterials, and micromaterials. The specific projects proposed are 1) to investigate the age-dependent properties of dentin, 2) evaluate an experimental coating to reduce wear from artificial joints and 3) characterize an alternative material for microfabrication.. The required TriboIndenter will be the only one at UMBC, and will support collaborative research projects among the UMBC, the UM Dental School, the American Dental Association and the NIST. The instrument will be incorporated into three undergraduate laboratory courses, the Junior Engineers in Maryland Schools and the Research Scholars Program.

本提案的目标是获得一种纳米压痕器，用于表征特定组织、生物材料和微材料的材料特性。提出的具体项目有：1)研究牙本质随年龄变化的特性；2)评估一种实验性涂层以减少人工关节的磨损；3)表征一种用于微加工的替代材料。所需的TriboIndenter将是UMBC唯一的一个，并将支持UMBC， UM牙科学院，美国牙科协会和NIST之间的合作研究项目。该仪器将被纳入三个本科实验课程，马里兰学校的初级工程师和研究学者计划。
