Abstract

Development of reliable bonding techniques for ceramics and metals is considered to be very important for more useful applications of ceramics to machinery parts. However, a high thermal stress concentration occurs at the corner of bonded interface in ceramics during the bonding process. This occurs because of the difference in thermal properties of the bond materials and reduces the strength of the bonded joint considerably.

The authors have been investigating various methods for effectively decreasing this stress concentration. In this paper, they present theoretical and experimental evidence that the stress concentration can be successfully diminished by varying the apex angle of joints. It is found that the tensile strength of joints increases as the apex angle of metals decreases from 90 deg to 45 deg. It also increases with increasing the apex angle of metals. Numerical calculations confirm these experimental results and the proposed procedure may be useful in the design and manufacture dissimilar joints.
