Book Description
Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) have been identified as a key material system for improving the thrust-to-weight ratio of high-performance aircraft engines. An interturbine flow-path duct for a high-performance engine has been identified as a component with the potential for 100% reduction in active cooling air and 80% reduction in weight through the use of CMC material systems. To reduce risk prior to incorporating the interturbine duct in a high-performance engine, a CMC subelement design was conducted, parts were fabricated from two potential CMC material systems, and tests were conducted in a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) high-temperature, high-pressure burner rig with parameters representative of the high-performance engine environment. The burner rig testing verified the mechanical attachment and flow path sealing techniques as well as distinguished the oxidative stability of the two CMC material systems tested. After the burner rig testing was completed, the successful subelements were laser cut into three continuous hoop configurations and tested at room temperature for hoop retained tensile strength. The retained strength test results as well as fractography work indicated the need for regional architecture modifications as well as improved methods of infiltrating the fiber tows with oxidation inhibitors.

Multifunctional Polycrystalline Ferroelectric Materials
Author: Lorena Pardo
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048128757
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 847
Book Description
This book presents selected topics on processing and properties of ferroelectric materials that are currently the focus of attention in scientific and technical research. Ferro-piezoelectric ceramics are key materials in devices for many applications, such as automotive, healthcare and non-destructive testing. As they are polycrystalline, non-centrosymmetric materials, their piezoelectricity is induced by the so-called poling process. This is based on the principle of polarization reversal by the action of an electric field that characterizes the ferroelectric materials. This book was born with the aim of increasing the awareness of the multifunctionality of ferroelectric materials among different communities, such as researchers, electronic engineers, end-users and manufacturers, working on and with ferro-piezoelectric ceramic materials and devices which are based on them. The initiative to write this book comes from a well-established group of researchers at the Laboratories of Ferroelectric Materials, Materials Science Institute of Madrid (ICMM-CSIC). This group has been working in different areas concerning thin films and bulk ceramic materials since the mid-1980s. It is a partner of the Network of Excellence on Multifunctional and Integrated Piezoelectric Devices (MIND) of the EC, in which the European Institute of Piezoelectric Materials and Devices has its origin.

Damage Assessment in TiB2 Ceramic Armor Targets

ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
The interaction between long rods and ceramics is only partially understood; however, this understanding is essential in the design of improved performance of impact-resistant materials and armor system design applications. The current work takes a preliminary look into the modem mythology surrounding the formation of radial cracking in ceramics during ballistic penetration. Tests were conducted using a 32-g tungsten alloy laboratory penetrator with a length to diameter ratio (L/D) = 20 at a nominal impact velocity of 1,600 m/s. Testing evaluated both prestressed and unstressed titanium diboride (TiB2) ceramic tiles. Evaluation of the damage included microstructural analysis using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with a Robinson backscatter detector for surface structure, the x-ray computed tomography (CT) nondestructive technique to completely scan the interior of each disk, and limited analytical modeling of the stress state.
