Transient Joule heating via highly dispersed carbon fibers to achieve superior bonding of SiCf/SiC composites joints with relieved residual stress

: SiC f /SiC composites suit high-temperature uses like aircraft engines for their thermal stability and strength. Metal joining challenges arise from thermal expansion mismatch, inducing interface stress. We propose Joule thermal shock for low-stress bonding through rapid localized heating. TiC/C interlayer's graphite particles enhance strength via superior TiC-graphite adsorption.
