Extract

The fracture and fatigue crack growth characteristics of niobium silicide/Nb(ss) in-situ composites as well as a variety of Nb alloys were determined over a range of temperatures and loading rates. It is shown that the in-situ composites exhibited nominally rate-independent and temperatureindependent values for the toughness with an average toughness exceeding 24 MPa.m0.5. The fatigue behavior of both the Nb alloys and in-situ composites revealed that both the Paris Law exponents and fatigue threshold values were similar to that exhibited by metallic materials.
