Impact damage on silicon carbide : first results

P. Riou , L. Beylat , C. Cottenot , J.-L. Derep

This paper deals with the damage of ceramic materials after impact. The main information on the phenomenology and the kinetic damage are often localized inside the Hertzian cone crack area [1]. With a ceramic tile target, it is not possible to obtain any information during the test. Therefore a new geometry of ceramic target, called "Match" was developed in order to put crack gauge inside the Hertzian cone. The relationship between collected experimental data and microstructural studies allow to validate the results of a three dimensional finite element simulation.
