Abstract The paper elucidates the methods of estimating damping in ceramic matrix composites (CMC) with matrix cracks. Unidirectional composites with bridging matrix cracks and cross-ply laminates with tunneling cracks in transverse layers and bridging cracks in longitudinal layers are considered. It is shown that bridging matrix cracks may dramatically increase damping in unidirectional CMC due to a dissipation of energy along damaged sections of the fiber-matrix interface (interfacial friction). Such friction is absent in the case of tunneling cracks in transverse layers of cross-ply laminates where the changes in damping due to a degradation of the stiffness remain small. However, damping in cross-ply laminates abruptly increases if bridging cracks appear in the longitudinal layers.

AbstractThe thermomechanical stability of organosilane surface treatments for E-glass fibers used in fiber reinforced composites was evaluated. The effect of molecular structure of 40 to 80 namometer coatings on the force transmission across the fiber/matrix interface was measured as a function of temperature and exposure to water using a fiber fragmentation test. It was found that phenyl-substituted amino silanes exhibited better thermal stability, but were less resistant to boiling water, than the commierically available γ-amino propyl silanes. A bis-trimethoxy γ-amino propyl silane showed an increase in both the hydrolytic and thermal stability when compared to the commiercial product. A good balance of thermal and hydrolytic stability was also obtained with a methylaminopropyltrimethoxy silane coating.The strain energy released from the glass fibers upon decoupling from the poxy matrix or silane coating was found to be in the range of 145 to 186 g/m2 and varied no more than 20 percent over a temperature range of 25 to 75°C or when exposed to boiling water and then redried. It also varied very little with the silane coating used. In addition, the average shear stress attained at the fiber-matrix interface in an imbedded single fiber test at 25°C was as much as two times higher than the shear strength of the epoxy matrix and as much as five times higher at elevated temperature. These data lead one to the conclusion that the interphase failure in these composites is controlled by a plane strain fracture in the constrained region of the organic phase, near the fiber surface, rather than by the maximum shear strength in the interphase.
