Méthode Vickers. La mesure de la dureté par la méthode Wickers présente une certaine analogie avec la méthode Brinell. L'essai consiste à essayer, sous charge constante [...] (exprimée en kilo), une pyramide de diamant à base carrée dont l'angle au sommet a une valeur de 136 ° [...] On mesure la diagonale [...] de l'empreinte laissée par la pyramide après suppression de la charge. 2, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20Vickers
