Multiscale Modeling of SiCf/SiC Nuclear Fuel Cladding Based on FE-Simulation of Braiding Process
A generalized multiscale (micro-macro) finite element (FE) model for SiC-fiber reinforced SiC-matrix ceramic (SiCf/SiC) nuclear fuel claddings is established. In the macro level, the solid mesh of braided preform, which can be tailored by machine settings (braid angle, yarn width, and so on), is gen...
