Download or read book Indentation Techniques in Ceramic Materials Characterization written by Ahmad G. Solomah and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indentation techniques have become widely used in the characterization of brittle solids due to their simplicity, cost effectiveness, rapidness, and maybe most importantly, the indenter itself can be used as a mechanical microprobe in thin films, interfaces, grain boundaries, and nanocomposites. The papers in these proceedings cover measurement techniques, reliability of, and problems associated with this testing method. Also included is the application of nano-indentation technique, as a new frontier in brittle solids characterization, e.g., thin film and nano-composite materials. Proceedings of the symposium held at the 105th Annual Meeting of The American Ceramic Society, April 27-30, in Nashville, Tennessee; Ceramic Transactions, Volume 156.

Download or read book A Model for the Stochastic Fracture Behavior of Glass and Its Application to the Head Impact on Automotive Windscreens written by Christopher Brokmann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-02 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with the stochastic strength of glass and the application to the automotive windscreen. A finite element model is derived. This is then validated using known phenomena in connection with the fracture behaviour of glass. After the strength of a windscreen has been intensively investigated, experiments with wind windscreen, experiments with windscreens are simulated by means of the model. Finally, the probability of a pedestrian suffering a head injury on impact with a windscreen is predicted. of a pedestrian hitting a windscreen is predicted, taking into account the stochastic breakage behaviour of glass. Up to now, this has not been taken into account in EuroNCAP crash tests, for example.
Download or read book Ceramic Hardness written by I.J. McColm and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the utilization of ceramic materials is developing at a great pace, so too is the science of ceramics improving the understanding we have about these high-technology materials. New and improved ways of examining and investigating monolithic ceramics and ceramic composites are also being developed and reported at a great pace in a wide-ranging area of the scientific and technical literature. This book has been written with the aim of increas ing the awareness of the general materials worker of developments in modern ceramics and of bringing to a focus how much the study of their hardness can contribute to our understanding of them and lead to technical data that can be of considerable use in this fast-growing field. The readership will consist of materials scientists, metallurgists, and engineers moving into the new worlds of advanced ceramics and ceramic-containing composites. Detailed works on hardness are to be found in the metallurgical area, where much of the theory and early applications were developed. This book does not overly stress this early development of theory and practice, but concentrates wherever possible on the ceramics and glasses. Thus Chapter 1 introduces the general subject area to those whose interest may have been blunted in the past by the emphasis on one area of materials. Subjects raised in the first chapter are developed more fully in later chapters.
Download or read book High Pressure Surface Science and Engineering written by Yury Gogotsi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many instances of mechanical interaction between two materials, the physical contact affects only the outermost surface layer, with little discernible influence on the bulk of the material. The resultant high pressures in these localised regimes can induce surface structural changes such as deformation, phase transformation and amorphization.

Download or read book Compressive Strength and Indentation Damage in Ceramic Materials written by James Lankford (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The threshold loads and crack sizes for indentation cracking were investigated for a number of ceramics using scanning electron microscopy and acoustic emission. It was found that the cracking behavior could be predicted, using a fracture mechanics/dimensional analysis approach modified to take into account the stress field at an elastic-plastic indentation. Selected area electron channeling was used to characterize the extent of subsurface damage produced in ceramics during grinding and polishing operations. It was found that polishing damage depths can be correlated using a simple model based on a sliding elastic-plastic indenter. Finally, the effect of temperature and strain rate upon material removal and cracking threshold was analyzed, using recent experimental compressive strength and crack growth measurements as inputs to current predictive models. The results are shown to have surprising implications with regard to dynamic, high temperature indentation (particle impact). (Author).
