The internal load transfer and the deformation behaviour of aluminium-matrix composites reinforced with 2D-random alumina (Saffil Ò ) short fibres was studied for different loading modes. The evolution of stress in the metallic matrix was measured by neutron diffraction during in situ uniaxial defor

✦ Synopsis
Continuous fibre reinforced ceramic matrix composites are characterised by matrix cracking occurring at lower tensile strains than failure of the reinforcing fibres . After matrix cracking, the load is carried by the reinforcing fibres until the stresses are high enough to cause individual fibre fractures. Once an individual fibre fails, the load is transferred to the other intact fibres. It is often assumed that this transfer of load is global, i.e. the stress increment is equal for all intact fibres [2-4]. However, it is reasonable to expect that the load would be transferred locally to the neighbouring fibres according to some function of their distance from the broken fibre .
