Abstract
A constitutive equation has been derived for fiber-reinforced ceramic- matrix composites, based on fiber breakage and distributed fiber pull- out. Length-dependent and length-independent regimes, governed by the size of the specimen, are differentiated. The constitutive equation is used to predict the ultimate strength of fiber-reinforced ceramic-mat rix composites subjected to tensile and flexural loadings.
