The fatigue behavior of the SCS-6 silicon carbide fiber-reinforced Ti-6Al-4V/Ti-25Al-10Nb hybrid laminated composite was investigated at room temperature. The accumulation of fatigue damage in the form of matrix cracking was measured as a function of loading cycles and applied stress levels. The residual stiffness and residual tensile strength of the post-fatigued specimens were determined. The comparison of the crack growth behavior of the hybrid composite with both the SCS-6/Ti-6-4 and SCs-6/Ti-25-10 composites will also be discussed.
