Book Description
A Comprehensive and Self-Contained Treatment of the Theory and Practical Applications of Ceramic Materials When failure occurs in ceramic materials, it is often catastrophic, instantaneous, and total. Now in its Second Edition, this important book arms readers with a thorough and accurate understanding of the causes of these failures and how to design ceramics for failure avoidance. It systematically covers: Stress and strain Types of mechanical behavior Strength of defect-free solids Linear elastic fracture mechanics Measurements of elasticity, strength, and fracture toughness Subcritical crack propagation Toughening mechanisms in ceramics Effects of microstructure on toughness and strength Cyclic fatigue of ceramics Thermal stress and thermal shock in ceramics Fractography Dislocation and plastic deformation in ceramics Creep and superplasticity of ceramics Creep rupture at high temperatures and safe life design Hardness and wear And more While maintaining the first edition's reputation for being an indispensable professional resource, this new edition has been updated with sketches, explanations, figures, tables, summaries, and problem sets to make it more student-friendly as a textbook in undergraduate and graduate courses on the mechanical properties of ceramics.
Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Advanced Ceramics for Gun Barrel Applications

Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
Eight commercially available ceramic materials were procured and evaluated for potential application as gun barrel liners. These materials included an alumina, zirconia, and SiAlON, as well as three silicon carbides and two silicon nitrides. Preliminary evaluation determined the strengths, fracture toughness, Vickers hardness, thermal conductivity, specific heat, and linear coefficient of thermal expansion. An uncensored Weibull analysis was performed on all of the strength data. These databases were developed for use in the probabilistic modeling and design efforts of the program to predict performance, identify optimum gun barrel designs, and to rank and down select ceramics for further evaluation.

Book Description
Excerpt from Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Ceramics: Proceedings of a Symposium Held at Gaithersburg, Maryland, April 1-2, 1968 Ceramics are frequently manufactured by a heating process which appears deceptively simple but which usually involves a number of competing reactions and transport processes occurring at different rates. Optimizing a particular property requires a starting composition and heat treatment Which produces the final composition and microstructure (usually denoted by the word character) needed for that property. In principle one should begin With the properties needed, determine the character required' from an understanding of the property character relationship, and design the processing from an understanding of the chemistry and mass transport which are involved. In practice the understanding of both areas is limited so that empirical procedures, guided by some degree of fundamental understanding, are generally used.

Ceramics
Author: Dietrich MunzPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642584071
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
The book gives a description of the failure phenomena of ceramic materials under mechanical loading, the methods to determine their properties, and the principles for material selection. The book presents fracture mechanical and statistical principles and their application to describe the scatter of strength and lifetime, while special chapters are devoted to creep behaviour, multiaxial failure criteria and thermal shock behaviour. XXXXXXX Neuer Text Describing how ceramic materials fracture and fail under mechanical loading, this book provides methods for determining the properties of ceramics, and gives criteria for selecting ceramic materials for particular applications. It also examines the fracture-mechanical and statistical principles and their use in understanding the strength and durability of ceramics. Special chapters are devoted to creep behavior, criteria for multiaxial failure, and behavior under thermal shock. Readers will gain insight into the design of reliable ceramic components.
