The Mechanical Performance of Fiber Reinforced Ceramic Matrix Composites
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
This article evaluates the current understanding of relationships between microstructure and mechanical properties in ceramics reinforced with aligned fibers. Emphasis is placed on definition of the micromechanical properties of the interface that govern the composite toughness. Issues such as the debond and sliding resistance of the interface are discussed based on micromechanics calculations and experiments conducted on both model composites and actual composites.
