Abstract
The effect of stress concentrations on tensile fracture behavior of carbon-carbon (C/C) composites was investigated using circularly holed specimens and double-edge-notched (DEN) specimens. As for the circularly holed specimens, the tensile fracture stress was much higher than that estimated from the maximum stress criterion, which suggest that major stress relaxation mechanisms should exist. On the other hand, the linear elastic fracture mechanics can be applied to the DEN specimen, which means the damaged zone should be small enough.
