Statistical Analysis Of Fracture Stresses Of Triaxial Porcelain Bodies, Robert E. Moore
Statistical Analysis Of Fracture Stresses Of Triaxial Porcelain Bodies, Robert E. Moore
Doctoral Dissertations
"Triaxial porcelain bodies containing various forms of silica, quartz, cristobalite and fused silica, were strength tested in bending. Significance tests were employed to discern real differences in the strength sample statistics caused by the various forms of silica. Firings were performed at three temperature levels. The differences in strength sample statistics were correlated to the microstructures of these silica porcelains.
A triaxial alumina porcelain body was employed as a model brittle solid for a study of the effect of flaw density on mean fracture stress. The flaws were introduced in the form of large diameter (d̄ = 115 microns) rounded …
