Seek your input on nano-indentation or basic mechanics of materials

Submitted by L. Roy Xu on

Dear researchers----We spent more than two years to prepare a research proposal and it was submitted to a federal funding agency (not NSF).  Based on one reviewer’s comments,  the program manager rejected our proposal. Our title is “A Multi-Scale Approach of Combining Nano-indentation with Computational Mechanics to Predict Impact Behavior of Structural Composite Materials”. I only list these comments related to nano-indentation. Your frank opinion is really appreciated.
