Abstract

In this paper, a new diamond–silicon carbide ceramic composite material—Ideal—is studied and its mechanical characteristics are determined. For the first time, a comprehensive determination of Poisson’s ratio, shear modulus, bulk modulus, and transverse sound velocity is carried out. Poisson’s ratio is in the region of 0.008 to 0.01, which, in turn, indicates the absolutely brittle nature of the failure of the Ideal ceramic under loading. The criteria that allow evaluating different materials used for body armor are calculated.
