Prediction of Elastic Properties for a Wound Oxide Ceramic Matrix Composite Material

Kurzfassung

This study presents enhanced studies of inverse approach of the classical laminate theory for prediction of the elastic properties of a wound oxide ceramic matrix composites material (CMC). Based on mechanical tests and microstructure analysis, elastic properties of virtual equivalent unidirectional layers were calculated. To adapt the analytical model to CMCs from different batches which show various fiber volume contents, porosities, and different fiber orientations, a scaling factor Ω was introduced with the help of modified mixing considering these specific properties. A good correlation between experimental and analytically calculated results showed in this study.
