✦ Synopsis

Fibrous Monolithic Ceramics.

-Studies on the structure from the submillimeter to the nanometer scale, the mechanical properties, and the failure mechanisms in Si 3 N 4 -BN monoliths show how the elastic properties and strength vary with the architecture of the cells which can be described by a modified laminate theory. The temp.-dependent mechanical properties are discussed in terms of the structure and arrangement of constituent phases. The strength of fibrous monoliths is predicted using existing models. -(KOVAR,
