Abstract: Methods for preparing ceramic matrix composites using melt infiltration and chemical vapor infiltration are provided as well as the resulting ceramic matrix composites. The methods and products include the incorporation of sacrificial fibers to provide improved infiltration of the fluid infiltrant. The sacrificial fibers are removed, such as decomposed during pyrolysis, resulting in the formation of regular and elongate channels throughout the ceramic matrix composite. Infiltration of the fluid infiltrant can then take place using the elongate channels resulting in improved density and an improved ceramic matrix composite product.

Abstract: A system includes one or more processors configured to be operably coupled to a vehicle system configured to travel along a route during a trip. The vehicle system has a vehicle particulate filter (VPF) disposed within an exhaust passage of the vehicle system. The one or more processors are configured to determine, based on trip information about the trip of the vehicle system, one or more regeneration-incompatible (RI) portions of the trip. The RI portions are associated with operating conditions of the vehicle system that are unsuitable for contemporaneous active regeneration of the VPF. The one or more processors are further configured to schedule an active regeneration (AR) event for the vehicle system based on the one or more RI portions of the trip. The AR event occurs during a regeneration portion of the trip.
