Lecture

Mechanical Behavior of Ceramics

Description

This lecture covers the mechanical behavior of ceramics, focusing on concepts such as fracture mechanics, catastrophic failure, and statistical analysis of material strength. It explains the Weibull distribution, the role of flaws in material strength, and the factors influencing fracture propagation. The lecture also discusses the impact of stress on crack growth, slow crack growth due to subcritical cracking, and the effects of environmental factors on material integrity.
