Nondestructive evaluation of a high temperature ceramic matrix composite material

The purpose of this investigation was to nondestructively characterize a 2-D Nicalon-reinforced, CVI-SiC matrix composite before and after exposure to 1000, 1200, and 1400 °C in oxidizing atmospheres of air. Concurrently, the nondestructive testing methods used to detect thermally induced changes in...
