The aim of the present work consists in the comparison of in-plane strain fields with out-of-plane displacements in micro-areas of an Ag/Ni-composite after a macroscopic compressive deformation of 8.6%. The in-plane deformations in an Ag/Ni-composite have been analysed experimentally with a high resolution object grating technique and numerically using the finite element method. The out-of-plane displacements were measured with an atomic force microscope (AFM). The development of local strain fields in micro-areas at the surface of an Ag/Ni-composite was simulated numerically using the FE-method in plane strain condition. A real cut-out of the microstructure served as input for the calculation. The out-of-plane displacements determined by AFM measurements were used further to correct the in-plane values of strains evaluated by the object grating technique. The roughness on the surface of the sample was characterised by fractal dimensions and compared with the in-plane strains in the same micro-region. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
