A multi-scale stochastic model for damage analysis and performance dispersion study of a 2.5D fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites

This paper presents a stochastic approach to study the damage evolution and performance dispersion of a 2.5D woven fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composite in a multi-scale framework. The mechanical behavior of the composite depends on the constituent properties, fiber volume fraction, weave architecture and loading conditions. The dispersion behavior of the material was investigated with: i) a full-thickness meso-scale representative volume...
