Germany Received 30 March 2000; accepted 8 August 2000 Abstract Silicon carbide fibre reinforced glasses were investigated to create smart materials. The fibres were used not only as reinforcement ctrica I properties o the composite are not t only influe interface layer. Because of the electrical conductivity of the inlaid fibres and the fibre/matrix interface, the electrical properties of the composites have been used to detect the development of damage during mechanical testing. The development of damage due to fibre fracture and delamination under applied mechanical load in a unidirectionally reinforced specimen was monitored and micro deformation analysis was performed simultaneously Furthermore, local changes in temperature could be detected. Several mea- surements were taken to localize mechanical damage and temperature. C 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Consequently there starts must be something else in the composite which is elec Fig. 5 shows this first part, until a first matrix crack ductive occurred, of such a relationship between applied load, Accordingly we assumed a carbon layer of a thickness deflection and electrical resistance to unidirectionally of about 50 nm to explain the observed decrease of the reinforced commercial composites.

The correlation of the grey scale pattern showed no deformation until the resistance curve reached its maximum and no evidence of a matrix cracking during this time was found. Afterwards the destruction of the matrix started(Fig. 7, first deforma 398s tion after 258 s).

A more uniform align- certain time of stress increase ment of the carbon layer would improve the electrical conductivity and consequently the electrical resistance would decrease To confirm this assumption, we reconfigured the measurement to obtain a local resolution of the load channels condition of the specimens. Additional small electrodes were fixed at certain points of the specimens surface 2 (Fig. 2b)and changes in the electrical resistance of par ticular locations close to the surface and parallel to the reinforcing direction of the specimen were established independently from each other(Fig. 8).
