A micromechanical model for predicting tensile strength
… the model incorporates such phenomenon as fiber-fiber interaction; matrix-fiber interaction; damage due to processing; and local stress distribution at the interphase. The effects of the load sharing constants and shape parameter on failure are studied. A software package, used in the …

Matrix-fiber stress transfer in composite materials elasto-plastic model with an interphase layer
The matrix-fiber stress transfer in glass/epoxy composite materials was studied using analytical and experimental methods. The mathematical model that was developed calculates the stress fields in the fiber, interphase, and neighboring matrix near a fiber break. This scheme takes into account the …

Micromechanics of finite length fibers in composite materials
… occur in the constituents of a hybrid 3-D short fiber composite subjected to arbitrary homogeneous loading conditions. The model includes the capability to analyze composites containing different types of fibers, different aspect ratios of fibers (as well as continuous fibers), and different …

Characterization of Carbon Mat Thermoplastic Composites: Flow and Mechanical Properties
… mm long, 7.2 micrometer diameter, chopped carbon fibers in a polypropylene (PP) or poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) thermoplastic matrix were manufactured using the wetlay technique. This produces a porous mat with the carbon fibers well dispersed and randomly oriented in a plane. CMT composites …
