Study on the Reliability of Engineering Ceramics
ABSTRACT
Silicon Nitride samples with different microstructure were prepared by hot pressing and subsequent heat treatment under N2 gas pressure. The fracture toughness (KIC)of Si3N4 increased with the increase of grain size, but the bending strength of plain specimen($sigma$F) decreased. The relation between fracture stress($sigma$c) and equivalent crack length(ae) agreed well with the calculated values by process zone size failure criterion. A probabilistic failure assessment curve is proposed based on both statistical character of $sigma$F and KIC.
Key words: Fracture toughness, Microcrack, Process zone failure criterion, Grain growth, Failure assessment diagram
