Abstract
The use of hysteresis loop measurements for assessing the constituent properties of unidirectional CMCs is evaluated, using basic theory des cribed in a companion paper. Results are obtained on SiC/CAS and SiC/S iC composites. These materials exhibit very different hysteresis chara cteristics, reflected in differences in sliding stress, tau, and debon d energy, Gamma(i). These interface properties are manifest in the res pective tensile stress/strain curves.
