The results show that oxidation threshold of C-SiC materials increases with the amount of SiC particles in the codeposition matrix. Oxidation rate of C/C-SiC gradient matrix composites is significantly lower than that of C/C material. The micro-oxidation process was observed by SEM.展开更多

In particular, the following multiscale modeling strategies were employed: Concurrent modeling of all phases using the generalized method of cells, synergistic(two-way coupling in space) multiscale modeling with the generalized method of cells, and hierarchical(one-way coupling in space) multiscale modeling with the high fidelity generalized method of cells. The three models are validated against data from a hierarchical multiscale finite element model in the literature for a repeating unit cell of C/C-SiC.Furthermore, the multiscale models are used in conjunction with classical lamination theory to predict the stiffness of C/C-SiC plates manufactured via a wet filament winding and liquid silicon infiltration process recently developed by the German Aerospace Institute. Finally, un-reacted Si(or free Si) and porosity in the C matrix are included in the multiscale model, and the effect of these new phases on the stiffness and local stresses are considered.展开更多
