Explores the deformation and rupture behavior of composite materials, emphasizing continuous fiber composites and the role of the fiber-matrix interface.
Covers the manufacturing process of fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites for jet engines, including polymer impregnation, pyrolysis, crack formation, and 3D printing techniques.
Explores fracture mechanics, crack growth, and the weakest link theory, emphasizing the statistical distribution of crack sizes and the significance of the largest crack in material failure.
