Results on fracture, fatigue crack growth and debonding on compact tension specimens of a specially made composite material are reported. The specimens consisted of an epoxy matrix and layers of equally spaced long aligned glass fibers. The experimental da ...
Room temperature tensile tests are reported on two low-cost ceramic matrix composite materials, comprised of matrices of Blackglas(R) and a proprietory glass composition each reinforced with Nicalon(R) SiC-based fibers. The measured mechanical behaviors, s ...
The failure of fiber-reinforced ceramic and metal matrix composites under a fixed load for extended times occurs because of strength degradation in the constituent fibers. Specifically, the ceramic fibers possess a Weibull strength distribution caused by c ...
This paper examines the mechanisms by which a polymer is dispersed in a co-rotating twin-screw extruder. An experimental investigation of the morphological evolution has been carried out on a 45-mm co-rotating twin-screw extruder. Polyethylene/polystyrene ...
This paper concerns the gage length dependence of fiber strength as established by measuring the fiber fracture stress vs. fragment length in the succession of fragments, which occur in tension testing of a single-fiber composite (s.f.c.). For fibers with ...
Fiber gratings irradiated by CW-laser show a breaking strength and a lifetime performance similar to that of pristine fiber, on pulsed KrF-laser irradiation. In this paper we report on the mechanical reliability of fibers irradiated by UV light using the s ...
The mechanical resistance of UV irradiated optical fibers has been investigated by dynamic fatigue tests. The intrinsic Weibull distribution of the pristine and chemically stripped fiber were almost identical. The high germanium doped fiber was homogeneous ...
The time-dependent deformation of uniaxial composites reinforced with continuous stochastic fibers is examined using a one-dimensional model of a viscoelastic-plastic matrix reinforced with continuous viscoelastic fibers. The important effect of successive ...
The common approach to assess the stabilizing role of the ACL in the knee has been to measure the elongation of a few marked fibers in the ligament. A comparison of the relative elongation (RE) of these marked fibers between different specimens and studies ...
Deflection of a matrix crack at the fiber/matrix interface is the initial mechanism required for obtaining enhanced toughness in ceramic-matrix composites (CMCs). Here, energy, release rates are calculated for matrix cracks that either deflect or penetrate ...
