Improved Ceramic Fracture Behavior for High Temperature Turbine Applications,

Abstract

Report Objectives: Determine feasibility of developing an analytical model to investigate fracture behavior and strength of ceramic composites; Identify alternate analytical approaches for material model; Fabricate whisker reinforced ceramics and experimentally measure fracture toughness and tensile strength, and Compare experimental failure mechanisms to analytical methods to choose theory most representative of material behavior.
