Abstract
Using the stress distribution of the body containing a spherical inclusion, the stress intensity factor at the tip of the annular flaw emanating from the inclusion is formulized. Since the thermal expansion coefficient of matrix and inclusion is not matched, the residual stress is also taken into account. Introducing into the proposed temperature-dependent fracture surface energy or fracture toughness, the temperature-dependent fracture strength for ZrB2-SiC is obtained. The influence of oxidation on the fracture strength is also discussed and the analysis reveals that the oxidation has significant effect on the fracture strength under some circumstances. The calculated results are compared with the experimental data and they have very good consistency.
