This paper focuses on the comparing of the results of the FEM simulations of fused silica nanoindentation tests. Fused silica is modelled like bilinear elasto-plastic material with the parameters estimated from the experiment. FEM simulations are made with the 2D axisymmetric conical indenter which is equivalent to the Berkovich indenter and the indentation curves are evaluated. The FEM simulations were made with the rigid and the non-rigid indenter and the difference between the indentation curves obtained with these models is assessed. The evaluated indentation curves are compared with the indentation curves obtained from the experiment.
