Abstract

In this study, we investigated the mechanical behavior of carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide composites by indentation stress. Relatively porous and dense fiber reinforced ceramic composites were fabricated by liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) process. Densification of fiber composite was controlled by hardening temperature of preform and consecutive LSI process. Load-displacement curves were obtained during indentation of WC sphere on the carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide composites. The indentation damages at various loads were observed, and the elastic modulus were predicted from unloading curve of load-displacement curve.
