Abstract
Recently proposed approaches for enhancing the toughness of ceramics have been examined. Several approaches have been demonstrated to produce appreciable increases in toughness, including (a) controlled microfracture, (b) coherent precipitation, (c) ductile second phase networks, and (d) stress induced phase transformations. The relative merits and limitations of each approach, and the important prerequisites for optimum toughening, have been discussed.
