Fracture and Toughening of Brittle Structures with Designed Anisotropy
<p>Despite good thermal and chemical properties, the use of ceramic materials in structural applications is limited by their inherently brittle nature. Efforts have been made to improve the toughness of ceramics through composite design, but recent developments in net shape processing such as...
