Interfaces and interfacial mechanics : influence on the mechanical behavior of ceramic matrix composites (CMC) [PDF]

Le Journal de Physique IV, 1993
The influence of fiber/matrix interactions on the mechanical behavior of ceramic matrix composites is examined on glass matrix composites and mainly on composites made by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) of a fiber preform by a SiC matrix. Then the relationships between interfaces and features of the stress-strain behavior are highlighted on ...

Spatial Surface Mass Flux on Confined Fibers: DSMC Validation of a Kinetic‐Theory Model for Forced‐Flow CVI Deposition

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) is widely used to manufacture ceramic matrix composites, but deposition non‐uniformity and premature pore closure still limit processing time and cost. CVI operates at low pressures and in microscale pores, where non‐equilibrium gas transport develops, making common continuum assumptions unreliable.
