| ABSTRACT |
|
In Part III, the paper will show that an alumina-carbon nanotube-niobium nanocomposite produced fracture toughness values that are several times higher than that of pure nanocrystalline alumina. It was possible to take advantage of both fiber-toughening and ductile-metal toughening in this investigation. |
