Dynamic Response of Advanced Ceramics
Discover fundamental concepts and recent advances in experimental, analytical, and computational research into the dynamic behavior of ceramics
In Dynamic Response of Advanced Ceramics, an accomplished team of internationally renowned researchers delivers a comprehensive exploration of foundational and advanced concepts in experimental, analytical, and computational aspects of the dynamic behavior of advanced structural ceramics and transparent materials. The book discusses new techniques used for determination of dynamic hardness and dynamic fracture toughness, as well as edge-on-impact experiments for imaging evolving damage patterns at high impact velocities.
The authors also include descriptions of the dynamic deformation behavior of icosahedral ceramics and the dynamic behavior of several transparent materials, like chemically strengthened glass and glass ceramics. The developments discussed within the book have applications in everything from high-speed machining to cutting, grinding, and blast protection.
Readers will also benefit from a presentation of emerging trends and directions in research on this subject as well as current challenges in experimental and computational domains, including:- An introduction to the history of ceramic materials and their dynamic behavior, including examples of material response to high-strain-rate loading- An exploration of high-strain-rate experimental techniques, like 1D elastic stress-wave propagation techniques, shock waves, and impact testing- Discussions of the static and dynamic responses of ceramics and the shock response of brittle solids- An overview of deformation mechanisms during projectile impact on a confined ceramic, including damage evolution during the nonpenetration and penetration phases.
Perfect for researchers, scientists, and engineers working on ballistic impact and shock response of brittle materials, Dynamic Response of Advanced Ceramics will also earn a place in the libraries of industry personnel studying impact-resistant solutions for a variety of applications.
