High strain rate indentation-induced deformation in alumina ceramics measured by Cr3+ fluorescence mapping
Alumina materials with a range of grain sizes and purities were subjected to small-scale dynamic impact by sharpened tungsten carbide projectiles at sub-ballistic velocities. The resistance of the materials to fracture was recorded by visual examination of the cracking on the impacted surface and th...
