The time dependence for the depth of embrittlement into the composite determines the number of embrittled fibers available in a matrix crack. The region of fiber embrit￾tlement often appears as a ‘‘picture frame’’ 4 of strongly bonded fibers around the rim of the cross-section of a specimen fracture surface for a composite with through￾thickness matrix cracks. The time dependence for fiber￾to-fiber fusion was determined empirically from the depth of this ‘‘picture frame’’ by examination of rup￾tured-specimen fracture surfaces for two different MI composite systems, one reinforced with HN fibers and the other reinforced with Sylramic (Dow Corning Corp., Midland, MI) fibers 14,15 (Fig. 3). It was found that a semi-empirical parabolic time-dependence was an adequate description: x ¼ Coxt 1=2 ð11Þ where Cox is an empirical coefficient that best fits the measured oxidation depth data for a given composite system. Since the fiber strength degradation of pulled out fibers in a through-thickness cracked composite is con￾sistent with the measured degradation in fiber strengths of as-produced fibers, the descriptive expression for time dependent fiber strength degradation developed by Yun and DiCarlo 16 for the latter was used. Their data for rupture strength of three SiC type fibers are plotted in Fig. 4 as a Larson–Miller plot. The conditions for our 2780 G.N. Morscher, J.D.
