Abstract

Novel test development and the use of more traditional test techniques were applied to the characterisation of a potential, fibre reinforced SiCf/SiC ceramic matrix composite (CMC) system. Isothermal load controlled low cycle fatigue (LCF), strain controlled LCF (SLCF), and thermo-mechanical fatigue...
