Mechanical Thermal And Environmental Testing And Performance Of Ceramic Composites And Components

Download or read book Mechanical, Thermal, and Environmental Testing and Performance of Ceramic Composites and Components written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contains 21 papers from a May 1999 symposium on continuous fiber- reinforced advanced ceramic composites, related tests methods, materials characterization, and design applications. Papers are divided into four major categories of room-temperature test results and methods, test results and methods related to design implications, environmental effects and characterization, and damage accumulation and material development. Specific topics include notch-sensitivity of a woven oxide/oxide ceramic matrix composite, effects of microstructural damage on the thermal diffusivity of continuous fiber- reinforced ceramic matrix composites, and degradation of continuous fiber ceramic matrix composites under constant load conditions.
