Ceramics have a lower fracture toughness but show an exceptional improvement in the stress fracture that is attributed to their 1 5 orders of magnitude strength increase.
Ceramic material ceramic stress strain curve.
Plot the diagram and determine the modulus of elasticity modulus of resilience and modulus of toughness.
1 metals al alloy stress strain curve.
For brittle ceramics a three point bending apparatus shown in the figure below is used determine the stress strain behavior and the measurement results are used to calculate an equivalent modulus of elasticity.
The duplex materials consisted of a matrix of alumina and alternatively of yttria tetragonal zirconia composites without 2y tzp and with alumina 3y tzp20a.
With a very short elastic region but highly capable of supporting huge stresses.
Generally a ceramic with more defects is weaker.
Another way at looking at resistance to failure for ceramic materials is to examine the energy required to drive cracks through the system.

2 stress strain curve for ceramics.
A comparison of the cyclic and monotonic stress strain curves allows one to assess the cyclically induced changes in deformation resistance.
The curve is linear between the origin and the first point.
Cracks cannot easily propagate in tough materials making metals highly resistant to cracking under stress and gives their stress strain curve a large zone of plastic flow.
If the cyclic stress strain curve lies above below the monotonic stress strain curve the material cyclically hardens softens the cyclic fatigue behavior of ceramic materials has received.
Three point bending apparatus used determine stress strain behavior.
Data indicate that engineering formulas based on elastic materials may be applied to ceramic materials.
And finally analogous to ceramics are the stiff fibers and rigid plastics.

The stress strain behavior of a variety of duplex ceramics was measured with the aid of strain gauges attached to the tensile surface of beams in four point flexure.
Elastomers are the ones that strains more w a lower stress.
The hard fired materials exhibit straight line deformation to failure while the softer fired have a proportional elastic limit beyond which the stress strain curve deviates from a straight line.
We discussed this earlier.
