Ceramic matrix composites have good thermomechanical properties at high or very high temperatures. The modeling of the crack networks associated to the degradation of such composites using damage mechanics is not straightforward. The main reason is the presence of a crack network mainly oriented by the loading direction, which is a priori unknown. To model this, compliance tensorial damage variables are used in a thermodynamic potential able to account for crack closure effects (unilateral contact). The damage kinematic is initially completely free and imposed by the evolution laws. The key point of the present paper is to account for friction in such cracks that can result in an apparent activation/deactivation of the shear damage. The initial model is enriched with an inelastic strain and a friction law. The plasticity criterion is expressed only using tensorial variables. The model is identified and illustrated on multiaxial data obtained at ONERA on tubes loaded in tension and torsion.

The aim of this article is to propose a macroscopic damage model, which describes the nonlinear behavior observed on woven composites with ceramic matrix. The model is built within a thermodynamic framework with internal variables. First of all, the efficiency of the model to describe the mechanical behavior of carbon fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites is outlined. Then, the predictive capability of the model is evaluated with the help of an alternate torsion test.

This paper presents a damage-based failure criterion and its implementation in order to predict failure in ceramic matrix composites (CMC) manufactured via filament winding. The material behavior of CMCs is anisotropic and strongly depends on the angle between fiber orientation and loading direction. The inelastic behavior of laminates with different fiber orientations under tension and shear is modeled with the help of continuum damage mechanics. The parameters required for the damage model are obtained from a standard tensile and shear test. An isotropic damage law determines the evolution of damage in thermodynamic space and considers the interaction of damage parameters in different principal material directions. A quadratic damage-based failure criterion inspired by the Tsai-Wu failure criterion is proposed. Failure stress and strain can be predicted with higher accuracy compared to the Tsai-Wu failure criterion in stress- or strain-space. The use of the proposed damage limits allows designing a CMC component based on the microstructural phenomenon of stiffness loss. With the help of results obtained from modeling and experiments, fracture mechanics during the Iosipescu-shear test of CMCs and its capability to determine the shear strength of the material is discussed.

Within the framework of irreversible thermodynamics, a new general constitutive model for describing damage and its effect on the overall properties of anisotropic solids is proposed. The ability of the model to describe the overall stress-strain response as well as the loss of symmetry resulting from the interaction between initial and damage-induced anisotropy in a brittle matrix composite is demonstrated.

Ceramic matrix composites have good thermo-mechanical properties at high or very high temperatures. The alliance of two brittle materials (e.g. SiC fibers and SiC matrix) via an interface allows a pseudo-ductile macroscopic behavior due to crack deviation. The modeling of the crack networks using damage mechanics is not straight forward. The main reason is the presence of a crack network oriented by the loading direction, which is not known a priori. The aim of this paper is to extend an anisotropic damage model able to describe such behaviors to multi-axial loadings. For that, compliance-like tensorial damage variables are used in a thermodynamic potential able to account for crack closure effects. The damage kinematic is initially completely free and imposed by the evolution laws. The key point of the present paper is to account for an anisotropic history of damage. The results obtained are put in relation to alternate torsion tests performed on SiC/SiC tubes and richly instrumented.
