Abstract
Abstract One of the key requirements in developing composites and other advanced materials is generation of a good understanding of the relationships between composition and structure on the one hand, and properties and behavior on the other. Another key requirement is application of this understanding to develop a material with the desired properties. A third key requirement is to understand the new material's failure mechanisms. All of these are wrapped in the term “characterization”, which is the subject of this paper. Application of numerous materials’ characterization techniques to the study of ceramic composites is described.
