1 Introduction

A simple approach to the analys& of damage in CMCs is proposed. The mechanical behavior of unidirectional SiC-MAS.L glass-ceramic composite materials is investigated using quasi-static uniaxial tensile loading. The extent of damage in specimens subject to different prestresses is characterized by the total number of transverse matrix cracks, N, and the reduction in the longitudinal Young's modulus, E. It is shown that the exponential functions may be used to describe the variation of N and E with applied strain.
