Abstract

Fatigue behaviors of conventional alumina ceramics in cyclic loading with hemisphere and cylinder punches are investigated with modified small punch (MSP) tests. Residual strengths are used to quantify the degree of fatigue damage. The dependences of the residual MSP strength on loading mode, cyclic loading magnitude, frequency, and puncher shape have been discussed in detail. Fatigue behavior studies could be very convenient and effective because MSP tests could perform the cyclic loading and then evaluate the residual strength consistently and effectively.
