Advanced structural ceramics; Proceedings of the Symposium, Boston, MA, Dec. 1-3, 1986
The present conference on advanced ceramics discusses topics in transformation analysis, transformation plasticity and toughness, the mechanical properties and microstructures of Zr-toughened ceramics, the mechanical behavior of reinforced ceramic composites, and fracture and deformation behavior in ceramic composites. Attention is given to constitutive laws for ceramics exhibiting stress-induced martensitic transformation, displacive phase transformations in Zr-based ceramics, the deformation of transformation-toughened Zr, crack propagation in Mg-partially stabilized Zr, and strength improvement in transformation-toughened ceramics using compressive residual surface stresses. Also discussed are the strength of fibers in all-ceramic composites, matrix variations in Nicalon SiC fiber-reinforced composites, strain and fracture in whisker-reinforced ceramics, and deflection-toughened corundum-rutile composites.
