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.
Stress strain curve for ceramics.
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.
And finally analogous to ceramics are the stiff fibers and rigid plastics.
The electric strain gauge was used to study the deformation of several types of ceramic materials under stress.
Swain stress strain behavior of alumina magnesia partially stabilized zirconia and duplex ceramics and its relevance for flaw resistance k curve behavior and thermal shock behavior journal of the american ceramic society 10 1111 j 1151 2916 1992 tb04386 x 75 11 3058 3064 2005.
Indentation stress strain curves for base glass and glass ceramics heat treated at specified temperatures for 4 h.
It was found that they behaved as elastic materials.
With a very short elastic region but highly capable of supporting huge stresses.
Quasi ductile ceramics 523 indentation stress strain po a r data are plotted in fig.
5 for each of the glass ceramic.
Elastomers are the ones that strains more w a lower stress.
Data from experiments section 2 line fits from theoretical analysis section 4.
In engineering and materials science a stress strain curve for a material gives the relationship between stress and strain it is obtained by gradually applying load to a test coupon and measuring the deformation from which the stress and strain can be determined see tensile testing these curves reveal many of the properties of a material such as the young s modulus the yield strength.
