Objective<br />
• The objective of this lecture is to show you how to<br />
exploit microstructure in order to maximize<br />
toughness, especially in brittle materials.<br />
• Part of the motivation for this lecture is to prepare<br />
the class for a Lab on the sensitivity of mechanical<br />
properties to microstructure.<br />
• Note that the equations used are not derived -<br />
rather the emphasis is on basic principles and a<br />
broad range of methods for toughening.
