Beschreibung
Ceramic materials are widely used as components in a great variety of applications. They are attractive due to their good high temperature strength, high wear resistance, good corrosion restistance and other special physical properties. Their major drawback is their brittleness and the large scatter of mechanical properties. This book describes failure phenomena in ceramic materials under mechanical loading, methods for determining the material properties, and the principles that one should apply when selecting a material. The fracture-mechanical and statistical principles and their use in describing the scatter of strength and lifetime are also covered. Special chapters are devoted to creep behaviour, multiaxial failure criteria and thermal shock behaviour.
The book addresses the important topic of the reliability and failure behaviour of the ceramic materials widely used as construction components. Microscopic theories are presented to describe the observed phenomena and guidance is given in the choice of materials for particular applications.
The special methods of component design with ceramic materials are presented Applying these methods the engineer is enabled to design ceramic components in a reliable way Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
