Abstract:
The mechanical behavior of mechanochemically synthesized NbC cermets was investigated. Material hardnesses range from a high of 19.6 GPa for as-synthesized cermets containing about 4 vol% of Fe to a low of about 4 GPa for heat-treated cermets containing about 34 vol% Cu. Higher hardness generally correlates with lower fracture toughness (about 2 MPa m1/2 for cermets containing the highest percentage of NbC) and vice versa. Highest fracture toughness (about 7.5 MPa m1/2) is found in NbC–18 vol% Fe cermets heat treated extensively following consolidation. Abnormally low fracture toughnesses are

Abstract:
For adult Indian premolar teeth, we report for the first time ever the simultaneous evaluations of nanohardness, Young's modulus, and fracture toughness of the enamel nanocomposite. The nanohardness and Young's moduli were evaluated from near the beginning of the middle enamel region to within ~10 μm of the dentino-enamel junction (DEJ) and in the dentin region using the nanoindentation technique. The fracture toughness from near the middle of the enamel region to near the DEJ zone was measured using the microindentation technique. The deformation was studied using scanning electron microscopy

Abstract:
The microstructure, mechanical, impact and fracture properties of Australian bamboo have been investigated. The graded composition and property has been confirmed by depth-profiles obtained by synchrotron radiation diffraction and Vickers indentation. The mechanical performance of bamboo is stronly dependent on age. Results showed that young bamboo has higher strength, elastic stiffness and fracture toughness than its old counterpart. Both crack-deflection and crackbridging are the major energy dissipative processes for imparting a high toughness in bamboo.

Abstract:
In this paper, CaB6 sintered body was fabricated by hot-pressed sintering with/without nickel as a sintering aid. The microstructure and fracture morphology were observed by means of SEM. CaB6 polycrystalline hot-pressed at 2123K showed insufficient densification. Fracture surface revealed that the existence of pores and the poor grain boundaries made the occurrence of intergranular fracture. When 28wt% nickel was added, nearly full density was obtained, although the sintering temperature is 200K lower. Hardness, Bending strength and fracture toughness of polycrystalline CaB6 were measured. By

Abstract:
The transmutation target of nuclear waste material has been fabrication by a powder metallurgy method by using Alumina as the matrix and CNTs as reinforcement. The effect of different nanotube contents on the fracture toughness and the bending strength was investigation. The results showed the fracture toughness and the bending strength of composites increased with increasing CNTs mass fraction when the content of CNTs was less than 1.5%. However, when the contents of CNTs greater than 1.5%, the fracture toughness and the bending strength of composites decreased as the content of CNTs increase

Abstract:
AlN/BN laminated ceramic composites were fabricated using tape-casting and hot-pressing by optimizing the designs of the structure and geometry of AlN/BN laminated ceramic composites. The results showed that the fracture toughness and bending strength for AlN/BN laminated ceramics reached 9.1MPa.m1/2 and 378MPa respectively. The fracture toughness is two times higher than that of AlN monolithic ceramics. The excellent fracture toughness of AlN/BN laminated ceramics could be mainly attributed to crack deflection, delaminating, branching, parallel propagation and crack laminate pilling out at th

AbstractThe authors studied the fracture mechanical properties under half-symmetric loading in this paper. The stress distribution around the crack tip and the stress intensity factor of three kinds of notched specimens under half symmetric loading were compared. The maximum tensile stress σmax of double notch specimens was much greater than that of single notch specimens and the maximum shear stress τmax was almost equal, which means that the single notch specimens were more prone to Mode II fractures. The intensity factors KII of central notch specimens were very small compared with other sp
