The mechanical behavior of two straddle-packer systems subjected to pressure histories which replicated hydrofracture stress-measurement procedures has been investigated. The systems were pressurized in borehole simulators consisting of lengths of steel casing instrumented with strain gages. From the strain histories, the stresses applied to the casing by the packer elements could be calculated. The systems studied differed in the manner in which the packer elements were coupled; in one system the packers were rigidly coupled end-to-end (rigid coupling), whereas in the other, the tops of the two packers were rigidly coupled leaving the bottom of the upper packer free to slide on the mandrel (sliding coupling). The elements that featured in the two systems were also greatly different. The results indicate that the sliding coupling system tested exhibited nearly ideal behavior up to the maximum interval pressure attained in the tests of 25 MPa. This is accredited to intrinsic superiority of the sliding coupling design.

Ceramics, such as Al2O3 and SiC have numerous current and potential uses in applications where high temperature strength, hardness, and wear resistance are required often in corrosive environments. These materials are, however, highly anisotropic and brittle, so that their mechanical behavior is often unpredictable. The further development of these materials will require a better understanding of the basic mechanisms controlling deformation, wear, and fracture.The purpose of this talk is to describe applications of TEM to the study of the deformation, wear, and fracture of Al2O3. Similar studies are currently being conducted on SiC and the techniques involved should be applicable to a wide range of hard, brittle materials.
