X Abstract

After fabrication the carbon-carbon (C/C) plain weave textile composites often show a certain degree of geometrical or material disorder including yarn waviness and misalignment or nesting of individual fiber tows together with intrinsic material porosity observed at all relevant scales. A brief survey of recently developed approaches for estimating overall elastic stiffnesses or thermal conductivities of such composite systems is presented in this paper. Depending on the source and type of available geometrical data the homogenization scheme usually relies either on finite element (FEM) simulations performed for a suitable Periodic Unit Cell (PUC) or employs one of the popular averaging techniques such as the Mori-Tanaka (MT) method. While existing applications of both methodologies are encouraging, there still exists a number of steps to be completed in the course of the future research.
