Ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs) are used as high-temperature structural materials, because they have outstanding advantages over more conventional materials such as: high specific strength, high specific modulus, high temperature resistance and good thermal stability, which play a crucial role in the development of a high thrust weight ratio aero engine. The critical nature of the application of these advanced materials makes it necessary to have a complete understanding of their characterization. Designers need information not only pertaining to the strength of these materials, but also their fatigue and damage characteristics. This book focuses explicitly on the durability of CMCs. The book will be extremely valuable for materials scientists and engineers who are dealing with the simulation of durability response and fatigue of ceramic matrix composites, with particular focus on aerospace propulsion systems. Provides the latest theoretical and applied research in the field of ceramic matrix composites, particularly as it relates to usage in aerospace propulsion systemsPresents extensive information on the micromechanics of damage evolution, lifetime prediction and durability in ceramic matrix compositesDetails parameter studies that are valuable for materials development and lifetime durability studies INDICE: 1. Matrix cracking of ceramic-matrix composites2. Tensile strength of ceramic-matrix composites3. Interface debonding and sliding of ceramic-matrix composites4. Damage evolution of ceramic-matrix composites under cyclic fatigue loading5. Fatigue life prediction of ceramic-matrix composites based on hysteresis energy dissipation
