Article: Analytical representations of elastic moduli data with simultaneous dependence on temperature and porosity.

An analytical model providing simultaneous, self-consistent representations of the temperature and porosity dependence of the elastic and bulk moduli of polycrystalline ceramics is applied to data compiled from the literature for 24 oxide ceramics.

Key words: analytical model; ceramics; elastic moduli; polycrystalline materials.

1. Introduction

Elastic deformation is one of the most important considerations in structural applications of solid materials. Indeed, elastic properties are commonly required in computer aided design and manufacturing techniques to simulate a product's behavior under variable conditions of stress ...
