Fingernail scratch
A mark of abrasion on a surface by human fingernail
Elasticity
Elasticity is the ability of a body to resist a distorting influence or stress and to return to its original size and shape when the stress is removed
Effective Contact area
When two objects touch, a certain portion of their surface areas will be in contact with each other Also usable for haptic evaluation  Because of the shape of the human finger tip, we only can perceive the uppermost microns of an object s surface

Durability
A property of the resistance against wear, abrasion, decay
Deformation
Changes in an objects shape or form due to the application of a force Depending on the type of material, size and geometry of the object, and the forces applied, various types of deformation may result, for example, elastic, permanent
