Abstract:

The Final Report, incorporating Year 3 of the University Research Initiative grant at Carnegie Mellon University on High-temperature Metal Matrix Structural Composites contains sections on processing, characterization, and mechanical properties. These are further divided into reports from individual tasks on powder blending and consolidation, composite performance, structure and composition of composite interfaces, fatigue crack growth, creep, and fracture behavior. Detailed findings, together with listings of technical presentations and publications, are presented in the individual reports from the six tasks conducted under this Grant.
