A Unique Set of Micromechanics Equations for High-Temperature Metal Matrix Composites

摘要: A unique set of micromechanic equations is presented for high temperature metal matrix composites. The includes expressions to predict mechanical properties, thermal properties and constituent microstresses the unidirectional fiber reinforced ply. are derived based on a mechanics materials formulation assuming square array unit cell model single fiber, surrounding an interphase account chemical reaction which commonly occurs between matrix. three-dimensional finite element analysis was used perform preliminary validation equations. Excellent agreement predicted using micromechanics simulated by analyses demonstrated. Implementation as part integrated computational capability nonlinear structural multilayered composites illustrated.
