N2 - This work presents a multiscale thermomechanical simulation framework to capture the temperature-dependent damage behavior of woven ceramic matrix composites (CMCs). The framework consists of cooldown simulations, which capture a realistic material initial state, and subsequent mechanical loading simulations to capture temperature-dependent nonlinear stress–strain behavior. The cooldown simulations result in a realistic material initial state with thermal residual stresses and damage hotspots that occur due to constituent property mismatch and post-manufacturing cooldown. A fracture mechanics-informed thermomechanical progressive damage model is extended to capture the manufacturing-induced damage that occurs because of the high thermal residual stresses and to simulate the mechanical response of two-dimensional (2D) plain weave carbon (C) fiber, silicon carbide (SiC) matrix (C/SiC) CMCs at temperatures ranging from room temperature (RT) to 1200 °C. A combination of temperature-dependent material properties and damage model parameters are included in the model to simulate the effects of temperature on deformation and damage behavior. Model calibration was conducted using quasi-static tensile experimental data from the literature for RT, 700 °C, and 1200 °C and the nonlinear, temperature-dependent predictive capabilities of the reformulated model are demonstrated for 1000 °C. The model is also applied to simulate the temperature-dependent thermomechanical response of a 2D woven five harness satin (5HS) SiC/SiC CMC at RT and 1200 °C and shows excellent agreement with experiments.
