AB  - In this paper, the mechanical properties of polymer matrix phase (modulus of elasticity, yield stress and work hardening rate) have been determined using combined methods such as nanoindentation, finite element modelling and artificial neural networks. The approach of neural modelling has been employed for the functional approximation of the nanoindentation load-displacement curves. The data obtained from finite element analyses have been used for the artificial neural networks training and validating. The neural model of polymer matrix phase of poly-l-lactide (PLLA) polymer in hydroxyapatite (HAp)/PLLA mechanical behaviour has been developed and tested versus unknown data related to the load-displacement curves that were not used during the neural network training. Based on this neural model, the nanoindentation matrix phase properties of PLLA polymer in HAp/PLLA composite have been predicted. © 2010 Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.

AB  - Biocomposites with ceramic fillers and polymer matrix are becoming attractive materials for bone tissue replacements. Nanoindentation has been used to locally characterize the surface mechanical properties of the hydroxyapatite/pOly-L-lactide (HAp/PLLA) biocomposite. Additionally, differences in the mechanical properties of HAP phase were successfully characterized as a function of surface morphology by using a highresolution modulus mapping technique. HAP granules consist of agglomerates of grainy clusters. Mechanical properties of ceramic grains and PLLA are in fair agreement with literature data. High-resolution methods were able to measure the properties of boundary phases between grains and the pore regions between particles in the agglomerate. After short-time immersion in distilled water, material surface showed a large decrease in storage modulus.

AB  - In this work, a combination of nanoindentation experiment and finite element modeling is proposed in order to obtain approximate material behavior of PLLA polymer in hydroxyapatite (HAp)/poly-L-lactide (PLLA) composite. Knowing these properties is important since the processing conditions used in hot pressing of composites with thermoplastic matrix strongly influence final mechanical properties of material in the solid state. A bi-linear material behavior is adopted for the polymer phase of the HAp/PLLA composite. Material behavior model, stress-strain curve, is determined by modulus of elasticity, yield stress and work-hardening rate. This combined method is proposed to determine material behavior before (modulus of elasticity) and after yield point (work hardening rate) of polymer phase after the hot-pressing of the composite. .

AB  - In order to obtain more accurate properties after compaction of hydroxyapatite (HAp)/poly-L-lactide (PLLA) composite, high-resolution measurement of mechanical properties method is proposed to determine the properties of each phase separately, leading to information that are valuable for the development of new materials as well as for predictive modeling purposes. The PLLA polymer processing conditions used in hot pressing of the composite strongly influence final mechanical properties of the material in the solid state. Since the aim was to measure PLLA material properties, acceptable findings could only be made using unconstrained, cured in situ nanoindentation tests. A finite element analysis of the in situ indentation experiment was performed to determine required size of plain polymer area, needed for indentation test, which would minimize the particle influence on the matrix elastic behavior.
