This European Standard specifies the resonant beam method for the determination of the dynamic elastic moduli of fibre reinforced ceramic matrix composites from 20 °C up to 2 000 °C in vacuum or inert atmosphere. The Young´s moduli and the shear moduli for different orientations with respect to the main axes of symmetry of the composite can be obtained.This document applies to ceramic matrix composites with fibre reinforcement: short fibres, unidirectional (1D), bidirectional (2D), and tridirectional (xD, with 2  x ï‚£ 3) which have at least orthothropic symmetry.NOTE 1 Dynamic means that the elastic moduli are determined non-quasistatically, i.e. under
