What is On the local crack resistance of Al2O3–TiC composites evaluated by direct indentation method about?

Vickers indentation tests were conducted on an Al 2 O 3 ±TiC composite at dierent load levels. The crack resistance calculated from the length of the indentation-induced crack exhibits a large scatter. Such a large scatter can be characterized well with Weibull statistics and can be attributed to the eect of microstructural inhomogeneity on the local crack resistance. The eect of the statistical variability in the measured crack resistance on R-curve evaluation was also discussed and the direct indentation method was suggested to be the most suitable method for the evaluation of the R-curve behavior for ceramics.

Who reads On the local crack resistance of Al2O3–TiC composites evaluated by direct indentation method?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Materials Science.
