Investigation of fatigue crack bridging in Ti/SiC composites by X-ray microtomography and diffraction

Fatigue resistance by crack bridging in pre-cracked Ti-6Al-4V/SCS-6 composites has been investigated experimentally using in-situ synchrotron X-ray microtomography and diffraction strain mapping techniques. Measurements were performed at room temperature and, in the ter case, at elevated temperature...
