Material Testing for Multiaxial Macroscopic Modelling of Ceramic Matrix Composites

Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) present several attractive properties. Efficient design in these materials requires an understanding of their behavior following damage events, and an ability to model the response of components stressed above the matrix cracking threshold. The development of such a...

Description
Summary:Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) present several attractive properties. Efficient design in these materials requires an understanding of their behavior following damage events, and an ability to model the response of components stressed above the matrix cracking threshold. The development of such a model requires the input of a wide variety of material data in order to provide adequate characterization of the behavior for modeling and validation. Some of these data requirements are discussed and the test method development activities which have been undertaken to address them are described. Material studied was a SiC/SiC fiber reinforced CMC.
