Numerical prediction of the effective coefficient of thermal expansion of 3D braided C/SiC composite

This paper is focused on the microstructure modeling and evaluation of effective coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of 3D braided carbon fiber-reinforced silicon carbide composites (C/SiC). Regarding the multi-scale characteristics of the composite, the microstructure modeling is carried out seq...
