Abstract

Tension experiments performed on a 0/90 laminated silicon carbide/calcium aluminosilicate composite at room temperature establish that this material is notch insensitive. Multiple matrix cracking is determined to be the stress redistribution mechanism. This mechanism is found to provide a particularly efficient means for creating local inelastic strains, which eliminate stress concentrations.
