Ceramic matrix technologies for composites and their widespread enabling supporting implementation
by Michael G. Jenkins
International Journal of Materials and Product Technology (IJMPT), Vol. 16, No. 1/2/3, 2001

Abstract: Advanced materials such as ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are an enabling technology for the implementation of many advanced engineering designs (for example, advanced, low emission, low fuel consumption gas turbines). However, an often overlooked critical aspect of this enabling technology role for CMCs are the enabling supporting technologies of standards, design codes and data bases that provide the tools to allow engineers to benchmark, design with and analyse CMCs for the advanced designs. In this paper, the current states of standards, design codes and data bases for CMCs are reviewed in light of their role as supporting enabling technologies. Potential advances and impediments to continued developments of these enabling supporting technologies are discussed.
