Compressive response and failure of fiber reinforced unidirectional composites

The compressive response of polymer matrix fiber reinforced unidirectional composites (PMC’s) is investigated via a combination of experiment and analysis. The study accounts for the nonlinear constitutive response of the polymer matrix material and examines the effect of fiber geometric imperfections, fiber mechanical properties and fiber volume fraction on the measured compressive strength an...

Compressive Splitting Failure in Fiber Reinforced Unidirectional Composites Using Modified Shear Lag Theory

Compressive failure by splitting is studied herein via an analytical model. The use of a shear lag model to determine the stress state at the crack tip and the modeling of the region away from the crack tip by the 3D elasticity equations leads to a simple analytical expression is used to determine the compliance changes for both unsteady crack growth as well as steady state crack growth under c...

A Simplified Micromechanical Model of Compressive Strength of Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites

A micromechanical model is constructed for the compressive strength of fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (FRCs). This model is based on the classical models of compressive failure of brittle solids in which sliding microcracks induce wing-crack growth under compression loads. The concept of increased microcrack sliding resistance and wing-crack growth retardation associated with fiber br...

A Micromechanics Based Processing Model for the Curing Response of a Unidirectional Fiber Reinforced Composite

A micromechanics based thermal model was developed to predict the temperature and degree of cure (DOC) distribution inside a unidirectional fiber reinforced composite during the curing process. Using the concentric cylinder assemblage (CCA) model as a representation of the composite microstructure, the effective thermodynamic properties of the composite were computed based on the fiber and matr...

An Energy-Based Model of Longitudinal Splitting in Unidirectional Fiber-Reinforced Composites

Unidirectional fiber-reinforced composites are often observed to fail in a longitudinal splitting mode in the fiber direction under far-field compressive loading with weak lateral confinement. An energy-based model is developed based on the principle of minimum potential energy and the evaluation of effective properties to obtain an analytical approximation to the critical stress for longitudin...
