This research develops a micromechanically based constitutive theory            for polycrystalline ceramic materials.  The theory is consistent with           the microstructure of the material and the kinetics of the                      microstructural changes.  The theory will, therefore, allow for a               systematic study of ways in which the microstructure (i.e., grain size          and distribution, defects, surface flaws, etc.) influence the                   mechanical performance of the material.  The research results will have         a potential to provide rational answers for the dependence of the crack         growing resistance on grain size and will lead to fabrication of better         and mechanically more reliable ceramics.
