Abstract

A computational and experimental method is suggested to determine indirectly the elastic properties of carbon composite materials at room temperature up to 2200°C and more. The method involves loading of ring-shaped test specimens through diametrical compression using non-cooled indenters at three points, within the elastic strain range, with ductility measurements. Based on the measured ductility values, shear moduli, as well as the longitudinal and transversal elasticity moduli in the test specimen cutting plane, can be determined by solving the identification problem. Results of experimental assessment of the permissibility of repetitive mechanical and thermal loading of the carbon-carbon composite material are presented. Method tryout with high-density needle-punched composite material is described.
