Ductile deformation in alumina ceramics under quasi-static to dynamic contact impact

Cr3+ Fluorescence spectroscopy and TEM have been used to study the ductile deformation of alumina ceramics underneath an impact contact. The contact was generated by a spherical tungsten carbide indenter under quasi-static, drop weight and ballistic loading conditions. In all circumstances, a ductil...
