Abstract

X-ray elastic constants for the 511+333 and the 422 reflections of β-SiC were calculated from the single crystal data of Tolpygo using the Voigt-Reuss, Eshelby-Kroner and x-ray methods. Agreement was satisfactory for the 511+333, but less so for the 422. A hot-pressed α-Al2O3/ 29 vol % β-SiC (whisker) composite was investigated on its 3 principal faces. The total residual strains were found to be consistently anisotropic on all 3 faces suggesting that texture was present in the whiskers as a result of hot-pressing. Assuming no texture in the matrix, it was found possible to determine the average residual microstresses in the whiskers using the theory of Noyan and Cohen, without needing to know the whisker elastic constants or texture. The average microstresses were determined in each phase as well as the average residual macrostresses on each face.
