Nonlinear Behavior of Ceramic-Matrix Composites EPUB

Nonlinear Damage Behavior of Ceramic Matrix Composites help readers [researchers, material scientists and design engineers] gain greater understanding on the damage mechanisms inside CMCs so they can better design components used in aeronautics and astronautics. Key areas addressed in the book include: the nonlinear damage behavior of ceramic-matrix composites, including damage mechanisms and models, nonlinear damage behavior of ceramic-matrix composites under tensile and fatigue loading, strain-rate dependent, stochastic loading dependent, and time dependent nonlinear damage behavior, and the effect of pre-exposure and thermal fatigue on non-linear damage behavior of ceramic-matrix composites.

• Provides comprehensive coverage on damage mechanisms and models under tensile and cyclic fatigue loading which ultimately control nonlinear behavior
• Covers nonlinear damage analyses of CMC components and experimental observations of damage evolution
• Presents extensive knowledge on fracture mechanic principles used in the design of aerospace propulsion systems
