Micromechanics of Interfaces in High Temperature Ceramics. (1998)

Mura, Toshio, Brittain, John O., Faber, Katherine

Results of the initial phase of a program to investigate the micromechanics of interfaces are summarized. Model experiments have been devised and implemented to follow crack propagation in a fiber...

Micromechanics of Interfaces in High Temperature Composites. (1998)

Mura, Toshio, Faber, Katherine T.

Both theoretical and experimental approaches have been used to examine the micromechanics of interfaces in ceramic-matrix, fiber-reinforced composites. In order to examine variables which allow for...

Micromechanical Analysis of Multiple Fracture and Evaluation of Debonding Behavior for Fiber-Reinforced Composites. (1998)

Li, Shuh-Huei, Shah, Surendra P., Li, Zongjin, Mura, Toshio

This paper concerned mmc in some important way and contained information about, utilized, or discussed these subjects: basic topics:, cmc, composite materials, dr cmc, theoretical materials and...

Transformation Toughening in Ceramic With Martensites or Micro-Cracks. (1998)

Gao, Zhanjun, Mura, Toshio

In certain ceramics, the high stress in the tip of a macroscopic crack induces martensitic transformation of the second phase particles (e.g., ZrO2). The transformation changes the near-tip stress by...
