This paper presents the results of fracture tests and crack path observations for a layered functionally graded material (FGM) consisting of Ti and TiB phases. The composition varied in a nearly linear manner from a TiB-rich layer at the bottom to commercially pure (CP) Ti at the top. Elastic properties of the mixed phase interlayers were measured using nanoindentation testing, demonstrating a linear variation with composition. These results differ significantly from approximations calculated in previous studies using a non-linear rule-of-mixtures approach. Fracture tests were conducted on single edge notch bend [SEN(B)] specimens with the notch aligned orthogonal to the direction of ... |
