Thermal resistance of bridged cracks in fiber-reinforced ceramic composites
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The thermal resistance of a bridged matrix crack in a fiber-reinforced ceramic composite is analyzed. The problem is cast in terms of a unit cell comprising an infinitely long composite cylinder with a single matrix crack perpendicular to the fiber axis. At the outset, it is demonstrated that the thermal resistance of such a crack can be represented by a simple circuit consisting of two parallel resistors; one resistor represents the thermal resistance of the gas phase Rg within the matrix crack, and the other resistor represents the constriction resistance Rc of the bridging fiber. The main focus of the article is on determination of Rc and bounds on this resistance are obtained by the use of variational calculus. The analogy between problems involving steady-state heat flow and elasticity in multiphase materials is emphasized. The results for the constriction resistance are compared with the predictions of an approximate analytical model presented by [T. J. Lu and J. W. Hutchinson, Philos. Trans. R. Soc. London, Ser. A 351, 595 (1995)]. In their model the radial temperature variation within the matrix is neglected. The domain in which such variations can be justifiably neglected is found.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
