CERAMIC GAS-TURBINE ENGINE DEVELOPMENT, AN INTERIM REPORT

While these payoffs for successful use of ceramics in gas turbine engines must be classified very high on any desirability scale, the problems confronting implementation of the structural use of ceramics for these applications also have a comensurate level of difficulty. It is worthwhile to look into the structure and properties of ceramic materials in order to appreciate the special design techniques necessary for their use in the engine application.
