The fracture and fatigue behaviour of a mullite/molybdenum composite is investigated. The attention is focused on the measurement of fracture toughness, KIc, on long through the thickness cracks by using SENB specimens, and on the growth of indentation cracks under static, monotonic and cyclic loads. Molybdenum was chosen to reinforce the mullite matrix because of the similar thermal expansion coefficients for both phases. It is essential to know and take into account the shape of the initial indentation cracks as well as the eccentricity change after extension under monotonic and cyclic stress. This study shows that, in mullite/molybdenum composites, static fatigue effects are negligible, but these composites are susceptible to mechanical degradation under cyclic loads. It is shown that the fatigue crack growth rate exhibits a high dependence on Kmax and that the fatigue sensitivity, defined as the ratio between fatigue crack growth rate threshold and KIc, is much lower than for other materials processed by powder metallurgy.

Abstract Fatigue crack growth can occur in elastomeric structures whenever cyclic loading is applied. In order to design robust products, sensitivity to fatigue crack growth must be investigated and minimized. The task has two basic components: (1) to define the material behavior through measurements showing how the crack growth rate depends on conditions that drive the crack, and (2) to compute the conditions experienced by the crack. Important features relevant to the analysis of structures include time-dependent aspects of rubber’s stress-strain behavior (as recently demonstrated via the dwell period effect observed by Harbour et al.), and strain induced crystallization. For the numerical representation, classical fracture mechanical concepts are reviewed and the novel material force approach is introduced. With the material force approach at hand, even dissipative effects of elastomeric materials can be investigated. These complex properties of fatigue crack behavior are illustrated in the context of tire durability simulations as an important field of application.
