This paper presents the results of recent studies of the effects of layer architecture (±45° and 0/±45°) on deformation and cracking phenomena in Ti-15-3/SCS-6 (SiC) composites. Deformation and cracking phenomena were elucidated by microscopic observations during incremental loading to failure. The initial damage occurred early via debonding between the fibers and the predominantly TiC reaction layer. This was followed by a complex sequence of damage that included: matrix cracking, sub-grain formation, stress-induced alpha phase precipitation, microvoid nucleation and coalescence, fiber fracture and catastrophic failure. Fracture in the [±45°]2s composite occurred by shear mechanisms. However, an axial failure mode was observed in the [0±45°2s composite. The composite strengths are compared with empirical estimates obtained from the Tsai–Hill criterion.
