![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Effect of on-axis tensile loading on shear properties of an orthogonal 3D woven SiC/SiC composite Effect of on-axis tensile loading on shear properties of an orthogonal 3D woven SiC/SiC composite](/preview/png/822189.png)
The present study examines in-plane and out-of-plane shear properties of an orthogonal 3D woven SiC fiber/SiC matrix composite. A composite beam with rectangular cross-section was subjected to a small torsional moment, and the torsional rigidities were measured using an optical lever. Based on the Lekhnitskii’s equation (Saint–Venant torsion theory) for a orthotropic material, the in-plane and out-of-plane shear moduli were simultaneously calculated. The estimated in-plane shear modulus agreed with the modulus measured from ±45° off-axis tensile testing. The effect of on-axis (0°/90°) tensile stress on the shear stiffness properties was also investigated by the repeated torsional tests after step-wise tensile loading. Both in-plane and out-of-plane shear moduli decreased by about 50% with increasing the on-axis tensile stress, and it is mainly due to the transverse crack propagation in 90° fiber bundles and matrix cracking in 0° fiber bundles. It was demonstrated that the torsional test is an effective method to estimate out-of-plane shear modulus of ceramic matrix composites, because a thick specimen is not required.
