This paper assessed the microstructure and properties of CeramTec ALOTEC 98 SB alumina ceramic through microscopic characterization and mechanical experiments. The rate-dependent strength and failure response of an alumina ceramic were studied under both uniaxial compression and compression-shear...

Farbaniec, Lukasz, Shaeffer, Matt, Ramesh, K.T., Hogan, James
We investigate the rate-dependent compressive failure and fragmentation of a hot-pressed boron carbide, under both uniaxial and confined biaxial compression, using quantitative fragment analysis coupled with quantitative microstructural analysis. Two distinct fragmentation regimes are observed,...
