Abstract

A model was formulated to determine the effect of oxidation of the fibers and the fibers coating on the stress-rapture behavior of NicalonTM/C/SiC at intermediate temperatures. The model, that was reduced in part to the analysis of a fiber bundle subjected to constant loading, predicts time-dependent changes in compliance and delayed failure, consistent with experimental measurements in air at 425 °C. The implications and limitations of the model predictions are discussed in relation to the associated phenomenology.
