Fundamental Studies of Novel Contact-Damage Resistant Ceramics

Abstract

The objective of the program is to elucidate novel concepts (including microstructures, processes, and materials) in the following 2 key areas of ceramics applications relevant at the U.S. Air Force: (1) contact-damage resistance and (2) thermal insulation/protection. During the period covered by this report, major innovations in the above 2 areas have been achieved and are summarized.
