DEFORMATION AND FRACTURE OF IONIC SOLIDS.

Abstract

This summarizes the nature of point, line and surface defects in ceramics. The interactions between these defects and their role in the various modes of mechanical deformation are then reviewed. The paper examines anelastic effects, plastic yielding, brittle and ductile fracture and creep in single crystal and polycrystalline ceramics. Emphasis is on the behavior of ideal, well characterized materials of high purity and zero porosity with the intent of presenting the fundamental background to the subject. (Author)
