Relationships between processing, microstructure and properties of dense and reaction-bonded silicon nitride

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between powder properties, process conditions, densification and microstructure, as well as the interdependence between microstructures and properties is discussed.

A ductile ceramic eutectic composite with high strength at 1,873 K

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a strong ceramic composite with a different kind of microstructure, made by unidirectional solidification of an Al 2 O 3 / GdAlO 3 eutectic mixture.

Elastic Properties of the Solid Electrolyte Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO)

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of first-principles calculations, acoustic impulse excitation measurements, and nanoindentation experiments are used to determine the elastic constants and moduli for high-conductivity LLZO compositions based on Al and Ta doping.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relation Between Strength, Fracture Energy, and Microstructure of Hot-Pressed Si3N4

TL;DR: In this paper, a fracture mechanics approach was used to investigate the high strength of hot-pressed Si3N4 powders, and room-temperature flexural strengths, fracture energies, and elastic moduli were determined for material fabricated from α- and β-phase Si3 N4 powder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fracture Toughness Determination of A12O3 Using Four‐Point‐Bend Specimens with Straight‐Through and Chevron Notches

TL;DR: In this article, fracture toughness of sintered A12O3 specimens with straight-through or chevron notches was determined with four-point-bend specimens.

Journal ArticleDOI

A variational approach to the theory of the elastic behaviour of polycrystals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived lower and upper bounds for the elastic moduli of polycrystals in terms of the modulus of the constituting crystals, and showed that the present bounds are a considerable improvement of the well-known Voigt and Reuss bounds.

A theory of the fracture of metals

TL;DR: In this paper, a theory of the fracture of metals is presented, which is based on the theory of fracture theory of metal fracture, and it is proved that the theory is correct.
