File Description [top]

The CSA Aerospace & High Technology Database provides references, abstracts, and controlled-vocabulary indexing of key scientific and technical documents, as well as books, reports, and conferences covering aerospace research and development in more than 40 countries including Japan and Eastern European nations. The database supports basic and applied research in aeronautics, astronautics, and space sciences, as well as technology development and applications in complementary and supporting fields such as chemistry, geosciences, physics, communications, and electronics.

The CSA Aerospace & High Technology Database is the online equivalent of International Aerospace Abstracts (IAA) and Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR)(1962-1993). It also contains reports issued by NASA, other U.S. government agencies, international institutions, universities, and private firms. File 108 is available through all available Dialog contract options to corporate customers, and via site license only to those in the government sector. It is not available to customers in the academic sector through Dialog.

        ABSTRACT: 
      /AB    This paper presents a simple route of obtaining tough TZP ceramics, based 
        on the mixing of 8 and 0 mol% Y-ZrO2 powders followed by sintering under 
        identical conditions. The experimental results clearly revealed that 
        toughness optimization by careful tuning the compositional variation is 
        achievable in this new route. For the first time, the present research has 
        demonstrated that the indentation toughness of 8Y-ZrO2 can be significantly 
        improved by addition of different amounts of yttria free monoclinic 
        zirconia particles. The addition of Y-free zirconia powders is also 
        observed to cause significant microstructural refinement in the sintered 
        materials.
