Book Modeling of Progressive Damage in Fiber Reinforced Ceramic Matrix Composites

Download or read book Modeling of Progressive Damage in Fiber Reinforced Ceramic Matrix Composites written by James P. Solti and published by . This book was released on 1996-03-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analytic methodology is developed to model the response of fiber- reinforced ceramic matrix composites (CMOs) when subjected to monotonic and fatigue loadings. The analysis requires the formulation of (1) a micromechanics model which defines the laminate's geometry and constitutive relationship; (2) failure criteria which estimate the extent of microstructural damage, and, finally, (3) a means of analyzing frictional slip, fiber pull-out, interfacial wear and laminate failure. For the present study, the behavior of unidirectional and crossply CMOs is investigated using modified shear-lag theory in conjunction with a set of failure criteria with a minimum reliance on empirical data. The damage mechanisms considered are matrix cracking, fiber/matrix interfacial debonding and fiber fracture. The stress-strain response under monotonic tensile loading, and the fatigue life (S-N relationship) and stress-strain hysteresis under cyclic loading obtained from the present solution are compared with their experimental counterparts. They are in good agreement with one another. As expected, the assumed degradation in the frictional resistance along the constituent interface plays a dominant role in determining the material response.

Book High Temperature Mechanical Hysteresis in Ceramic Matrix Composites

Download or read book High Temperature Mechanical Hysteresis in Ceramic Matrix Composites written by Longbiao Li and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-08-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on mechanical hysteresis behavior in different fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs), including 1D minicomposites, 1D unidirectional, 2D cross-ply, 2D plain-woven, 2.5D woven, and 3D needle-punched composites. Ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs) are considered to be the lightweight high-temperature materials for hot-section components in aeroengines with the most potential. To improve the reliability and safety of CMC components during operation, it is necessary to conduct damage and failure mechanism analysis, and to develop models to predict this damage as well as fracture over lifetime - mechanical hysteresis is a key damage behavior in fiber-reinforced CMCs. The appearance of hysteresis is due to a composite’s internal damage mechanisms and modes, such as, matrix cracking, interface debonding, and fiber failure. Micromechanical damage models and constitutive models are developed to predict mechanical hysteresis in different CMCs. Effects of a composite’s constituent properties, stress level, and the damage states of the mechanical hysteresis behavior of CMCs are also discussed. This book also covers damage mechanisms, damage models and micromechanical constitutive models for the mechanical hysteresis of CMCs. This book will be a great resource for students, scholars, material scientists and engineering designers who would like to understand and master the mechanical hysteresis behavior of fiber-reinforced CMCs.

Book Toughening Mechanisms in Quasi Brittle Materials

Download or read book Toughening Mechanisms in Quasi Brittle Materials written by S.P. Shah and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of ceramic materials has been recently shown to exhibit nonlinear stress strain behavior. These materials include transformation-toughened zirconia which undergoes a stress-induced crystallographic transformation in the vicinity of a propagating crack, microcracking ceramics, and ceramic-fiber reinforced ceramic matrices. Since many of these materials are under consideration for structural applications, understanding fracture in these quasi-brittle materials is essential. Portland cement concrete is a relatively brittle material. As a result mechanical behavior of concrete, conventionally reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete and fiber reinforced concrete is critically influenced by crack propagation. Crack propagation in concrete is characterized by a fracture process zone, microcracking, and aggregate bridging. Such phenomena give concrete toughening mechanisms, and as a result, the macroscopic response of concrete can be characterized as that of a quasi-brittle material. To design super high performance cement composites, it is essential to understand the complex fracture processes in concrete. A wide range of concern in design involves fracture in rock masses and rock structures. For example, prediction of the extension or initiation of fracture is important in: 1) the design of caverns (such as underground nuclear waste isolation) subjected to earthquake shaking or explosions, 2) the production of geothermal and petroleum energy, and 3) predicting and monitoring earthquakes. Depending upon the grain size and mineralogical composition, rock may also exhibit characteristics of quasi-brittle materials.

Book excerpt: This book presents the relationships between tensile damage and fracture, fatigue hysteresis loops, stress-rupture, fatigue life and fatigue limit stress, and stochastic loading stress.

Understanding the failure mechanisms and internal damage evolution represents an important step to ensure reliability and safety of CMCs. This book investigates damage and fracture of fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs) subjected to stochastic loading, including: (1) tensile damage and fracture of fiber-reinforced CMCs subjected to stochastic loading; (2) fatigue hysteresis loops of fiber-reinforced CMCs subjected to stochastic loading; (3) stress rupture of fiber-reinforced CMCs with stochastic loading at intermediate temperature; (4) fatigue life prediction of fiber-reinforced CMCs subjected to stochastic overloading stress at elevated temperature; and (5) fatigue limit stress prediction of fiber-reinforced CMCs with stochastic loading. This book helps the material scientists and engineering designers to understand and master the damage and fracture of ceramic-matrix composites under stochastic loading.

Book Progressive Failure and Life Prediction of Ceramic and Textile Composites

Download or read book Progressive Failure and Life Prediction of Ceramic and Textile Composites written by National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-11-18 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engineering approach to predict the fatigue life and progressive failure of multilayered composite and textile laminates is presented. Analytical models which account for matrix cracking, statistical fiber failures and nonlinear stress-strain behavior have been developed for both composites and textiles. The analysis method is based on a combined micromechanics, fracture mechanics and failure statistics analysis. Experimentally derived empirical coefficients are used to account for the interface of fiber and matrix, fiber strength, and fiber-matrix stiffness reductions. Similar approaches were applied to textiles using Repeating Unit Cells. In composite fatigue analysis, Walker's equation is applied for matrix fatigue cracking and Heywood's formulation is used for fiber strength fatigue degradation. The analysis has been compared with experiment with good agreement. Comparisons were made with Graphite-Epoxy, C/SiC and Nicalon/CAS composite materials. For textile materials, comparisons were made with triaxial braided and plain weave materials under biaxial or uniaxial tension. Fatigue predictions were compared with test data obtained from plain weave C/SiC materials tested at AS&M. Computer codes were developed to perform the analysis. Composite Progressive Failure Analysis for Laminates is contained in the code CPFail. Micromechanics Analysis for Textile Composites is contained in the code MicroTex. Both codes were adapted to run as subroutines for the finite element code ABAQUS and CPFail-ABAQUS and MicroTex-ABAQUS. Graphic user interface (GUI) was developed to connect CPFail and MicroTex with ABAQUS. Xue, David Y. and Shi, Yucheng and Katikala, Madhu and Johnston, William M., Jr. and Card, Michael F.
