Durability of Ceramic Matrix Composites at Elevated Temperatures: Experimental Studies and Predictive Modeling

In this work, the deformation and strength of an oxide/oxide ceramic matrix composite system under stress-rupture conditions were studied both experimentally and analytically. A rupture model for unidirectional composites which incorporates fiber strength statistics, fiber degradation, and matrix d...
