- who: Hassan Saad et al. from the Laboratoire Synthu00e8se and Fonctionnalisation Cu00e9ramiques, Saint-Gobain Research Provence, Cavaillon, France have published the Article: Toughening mechanisms in nacre-like alumina revealed by in-situ imaging of stress, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
SUMMARY
This toughness (damage resistance) is achieved mostly by the deviation of cracks along the platelets interface in their brick-and-mortar microstructure (Bouville et_al, 2014). While the deviation of cracks in brick-and-mortar microstructures is well documented, several other toughening mechanisms can exist in biological or bio-inspired materials (Bouville, 2020; Kakisawa . . .
