Abstract

This article describes an investigation of the deformation and failure of Al-Cu matrix, SiC particle reinforced composite materials, based on the evaluation of the performance of the material microstructure. Effects of variation of reinforcement volume fraction, morphology, matrix properties and loading state are assessed, as are the residual stresses due to processing. The modeling involves a detailed description of the microstructure incorporating a physically based, finite deformation, rate dependent, crystallographic theory of plastic slip. The theory is implemented using the finite element method. The suitability of phenomenological constitutive theories is assessed and use of simpler analytical models for prediction of overall composite behavior is examined.
