Rj. Kerans et al., FIBER-MATRIX INTERFACE PROPERTIES OF SINGLE-FIBER MICROCOMPOSITES AS MEASURED BY FIBER PUSHIN TESTS, Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 80(2), 1997, pp. 506-508
Fiber pushin tests have been performed on single-fiber microcomposite
specimens embedded in glass. The interface properties determined were
in agreement with those previously determined by two methods from tens
ile tests on microcomposites. The uncertainties in the interface prope
rties calculated from the microcomposite pushin tests were not found t
o benefit from the superior alignment of the microcomposite specimens,
as compared to literature results from composite specimens.
