Visualized System Dynamics Models as Information and Planning Tools

An oxidation resistant carbon-carbon composite (31) including a plurality of graphite fibers (13) within a carbonized (graphitized) matrix (14). A first material including boron (16) and a second material including silicon (18) are applied thereto. Heating the composite in the course of service use to a temperature at which the composite cracks enables the boron and silicon to combine to provide a borosilicate sealant of sufficiently low viscosity for sealing cracks in the composite.
