Functional ceramic composite materials are widely used in industry due to their high strength, hardness, high operating temperature, and chemical inertness. Among the most famous types of functional ceramics are the ceramic composites based on the Al2O3-20% ZrO2 system. In this work, the effect of the loading rate on the crack resistance is studied as well as the effect of the crack resistance of ceramic composites Al2O3-20% t-ZrO2 with a mass content of submicron tZrO2 particles on the high-speed compression of model specimens in shock waves and on the high-speed tension in the region of interaction of unloading waves. It is established that nonlinear effects of the mechanical behavior of ceramic composites ZrO2-Al2O3 with a transformationhardened matrix obtained by additive technologies are manifested at shock loading amplitudes close to or exceeding the Hugoniot elastic limit. Nonlinear effects under intense dynamic impacts on the considered composites are associated with the processes of self-organization of deformation regimes at a mesoscopic level, as well as with the occurrence of martensitic phase transformations in the matrix volumes, which are adjacent to strengthening particles. The modeling approach presented in this work can be used to determine the dynamic characteristics of ceramic composites up to shock loads of 1000 m/s.

This paper presents a physical and mathematical model that has been developed in the framework of the approach used in the computational mechanics of materials. The model is designed to enable the study of the patterns of deformation and fracture of ceramic composites with a transformation-hardened matrix that are obtained by additive technologies at the mesoscopic and macroscopic levels under intense dynamic loading. The influence of the loading rate on the formation of the fracture and energy dissipation fronts for composite materials, based on the Al2O3 20%ZrO2 system, is shown. Nonlinear effects under intense dynamic loading in the considered composites are associated with the processes of self-organization of structural fragments at the mesoscopic level, as well as the occurrence of martensitic phase transformations in matrix volumes adjacent to the strengthening particles.

The article considers modern perspectives and directions of using fast – hardening high – strength concretes for protection against striking factors of action of different types of weapons. It is shown that the use of concrete materials in weapons and military equipment is one of the important components of defense structures and protective fortifications during hostilities as platoons and bases, and structures for the protection of civilians. The possibility of obtaining such concretes for the creation of special purpose fortifications is shown. Developed concrete structures have increased strength and impact resistance to high-speed impact. Due to the reinforcement of the concrete structure with mineral and chemical additives and ultrafine fibers, high rates of early strength, viscosity, crack resistance and impact resistance are achieved. The paper presents the main indicators of water consumption, strength and impact resistance of high-strength concrete. The results of the experimental study of samples of the destroyed concrete elements are presented and the corresponding conclusions concerning the use of various types of fibers for reinforcement of such concretes and increase of their crack resistance by basalt fibers are made. It is shown that a high-strength concrete with high construction and technical performance can be successfully used to create protective fortifications and fortifications for special purposes.

Using elemental powders, combustion reaction was carried out to form intermetallic-ceramic composites in the Ti–Al–N system. Ti and Al powders reacted exothermically in gaseous nitrogen and formed a mixture product which had a fine distribution of the Ti2AlN particles in the matrix TiAl with a small amount of Ti3Al. Subsequently, these reacted products were arc-melted to obtain fully dense button ingots. The resulting composites had about 30 vol. % Ti2AlN, and the Ti2AlN particles were ellipsoidal or columnar in shape with sizes of 2–10 μm and appeared to be homogeneously distributed and well bonded to the matrix TiAl. It was found that such composite materials have a high strength at both room and elevated temperatures and some intrinsic compressive ductility at room temperature. Therefore, the processing technique in the present investigation is of interest as a new combustion reaction process to make intermetallic-based composite materials.

To improve production efficiency and quality of fiber-glass boatyards many research have been done both through technological as well as management aspects. One of these developments is Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM) which is claimed to have high strength and material efficiency. This method has not much been applied in Indonesian boatyards, most of them are still using conventional hand lay-up. The research is aimed to investigate the strength of the composite and the optimum amount of materials to obtain the required strength for its application on boat buildings. Experimental approach was conducted in the research using 800 biaxial and 900 unidirectional E-glass for reinforcement, and vinylester (RIPOXY R-802-EX-1) resin for the matrix. The ultimate tensile strength and Youngs modulus of the composites are obtained through tensile and flexural test based on ASTM D 3039 and ASTM D 790 standards. The data obtained are used to determine the optimum number of layers and fiber content on certain locations of the boat hull structure in order to comply with the requirements of classification rules.

ABSTRACTThe mechanical properties of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are governed by the relationships between the matrix, the interface material, and the fibers. In non-oxide matrix systems the use of compliant pyrolytic carbon or BN have been demonstrated to be effective interface materials, allowing for absorption of mismatch stresses between fiber and matrix and offering a poorly bonded interface for crack deflection. The resulting materials have demonstrated remarkable strain/damage tolerance together with high strength. Carbon or BN, however, suffer from oxidative loss in many service environments, and thus there is a major search for oxidation resistant alternatives. This paper will review the issues related to developing a stable and effective interface material for non-oxide matrix CMCs.

Whisker and fiber reinforcement has been established as an effective toughening concept for monolithic structural ceramics to overcome limited fracture toughness and brittleness. SiC whiskers in particular combine both high strength and elastic moduli with good thermal stability and are compatible with most oxide and nonoxide matrices. As the major toughening mechanisms - crack branching, deflection and bridging - in SiC whiskenreinforced Al2O3 and Si3N41 are critically dependent on interface properties, a detailed TEM investigation was conducted on whisker/matrix interfaces in these all-ceramic- composites.In this study we present HREM images obtained at 400 kV from β-SiC/α-Al2O3 and β-SiC/β-Si3N4 interfaces, as well as preliminary analytical data. The Al2O3- base composite was hotpressed at 1830 °C/60 MPa in vacuum and the Si3N4-base material at 1725 °C/30 MPa in argon atmosphere, respectively, adding a total of 6 vt.% (Y2O3 + Al2O3) to the latter to promote densification.

Zirconium dioxide (zirconia) ceramics are known by its high strength and toughness and titanium dioxide (titania) ceramics has outstanding surface properties. The ceramic composite formed between the two oxides are expected to have advantages of both ceramics, especially when its surface area is increased by pores. In this work, ceramic composites of ZrO2-Y2O3-TiO2were synthesized by coprecipitation and rice starch was added as pore former in 10, 20 and 30 wt%. Powders were cold pressed as cylindrical pellets and sintered at 1500 °C for 01 hour and ceramics were characterized by techniques as Archimedes method for density measurements, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Results showed that pores are inhomogeneously distributed through ceramic bodies.
