“…8,9 Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the creep and rupture properties of different SiC fiber-reinforced SiC matrix composites with a view to the effects of the two major constituents, i.e., the fiber and the matrix. Some tensile creep studies have been performed on high-content CVI SiC [10][11][12][13] and PIP SiC 14 matrices for composites with lower temperature polymer-derived SiC-based fiber-types. This study will focus on composites reinforced with more creep-resistant fibers.…”
