AbstractThe plastic deformation behavior of single crystals of two transition-metal diborides, ZrB2 and TiB2 with the AlB2 structure has been investigated at room temperature as a function of crystal orientation and specimen size by micropillar compression tests. Although plastic flow is not observed at all for their bulk single crystals at room temperature, plastic flow is successfully observed at room temperature by the operation of slip on {1$${\bar{1}}$$ 1 ¯ 00}<11$${\bar{2}}$$ 2 ¯ 3> in ZrB2 and by the operation of slip on {1$${\bar{1}}$$ 1 ¯ 00}<0001> and {1$${\bar{1}}$$ 1 ¯ 00}<11$${\bar{2}}$$ 2 ¯ 0> in TiB2. Critical resolve shear stress values at room temperature are very high, exceeding 1 GPa for all observed slip systems; 3.01 GPa for {1$${\bar{1}}$$ 1 ¯ 00}<11$${\bar{2}}$$ 2 ¯ 3> slip in ZrB2 and 1.72 GPa and 5.17 GPa, respectively for {1$${\bar{1}}$$ 1 ¯ 00}<0001> and {1$${\bar{1}}$$ 1 ¯ 00}<11$${\bar{2}}$$ 2 ¯ 0> slip in TiB2. The identified operative slip systems and their CRSS values are discussed in comparison with those identified in the corresponding bulk single crystals at high temperatures and those inferred from micro-hardness anisotropy in the early studies.

This work describes the fracture behaviour of silicon-carbide tubular specimens under multi-axial stresses at room temperature. A method of obtaining combinations of stresses in the form of torsion, hoop, axial tension, and compression is described and failure envelopes for silicon carbide are included from the data obtained. Failure theories are reviewed and the results from the work show that the available theories are inadequate to describe both the tension-tension and tension-compression quadrants. For practical purposes a straight-line relation can be used joining axial and hoop tensile strengths and the axial compression strength.

ABSTRACTTungsten and silicon carbide fibres have been coated with diamond using the HFCVD technique. The diamond volume fraction varied between 26% and 73%. Resonance in bending tests gave a Young's modulus of 880 GPa for the diamond coating. Tensile testing indicated that the diamond fracture strength was between 600 MPa and 2000 MPa, depending on the coating thickness, and thus the grain size, of the diamond. The strain to failure of the diamond coating in bending was approximately 0.15% for 25 μm thick films.
