| description | The successful applications of silicon carbide-ceramic matrix composites (SiC-CMCs) in aeronautical and aerospace industries require deeper understanding of their mechanical behaviors and failure mechanisms. The overview on tension and shear is then presented from meso-mechanics perspective, including matrix cracking, interface de-bonding and sliding, matrix crack propagation as well as fiber bridging. The results reveal that the matrix cracking stress is proportional to the interface sliding stress and the matrix fracture energy. The ratio of tensile to shear stress of the matrix cracking remains constant both in tension and in shear. In addition, the deflection of matrix cracks in the interface depends on the elastic modulus matching parameter, the angle between matrix cracks and interface, as well as the residual thermal stress. The matrix cracks propagate in a random or periodic pattern, which are proportional to the sliding length at the matrix cracking stress. The fiber bridging mechanism, related to the Weibull distribution of the fiber strength, determines the tensile and shear behaviors after the saturation of matrix cracks. |
