This paper presents the Onera damage model adapted to predict damage and failure mechanisms encountered in a new generation of interlock woven composite with ceramic matrix. The predictions of the present approach are compared successfully with different multi-instrumented tests performed at Onera or UTC in terms of non-linear behaviour, damage evo...

Fibre-reinforced C/SiC and SiC/SiC ceramic composite materials were prepared by gradient chemical vapour infiltration (gradient-CVI) and the applicability of such materials in pump components for the delivery of corrosive liquids at high pressures and high driving power was studied. As the SiC/SiC material undergoes intensive corrosion in contact w...
