Deformation processes in semi-brittle polycrystalline ceramics

  • Chapter
Non-Linear Fracture

Abstract

The paper focuses on the establishment of a simple, micro-mechanically based analytical model for an MgO polycrystalline specimen subjected to quasi-static uniaxial tension. The analytical description of the two basic modes of the irreversible rearrangements of the meso-structure: slip bands and Zener—Stroh cracks, is homogenized into a relation mapping macro stresses on macro strains.
