I've performed thermal stress simulation on a composite (AZ91 matrix, SiC Reinforcement) applying a temperature from 20o C to 200o C. I have given the properties: Young's Modulus, CTE and yield stress for each material as input.
Now, how can I find the CTE of the composite with variation of temperature.
Thanks in advance.
