Modeling and Predicting the Stress Relaxation of Composites with Short and Randomly Oriented Fibers

The addition of short fibers has been experimentally observed to slow the stress relaxation of viscoelastic polymers, producing a change in the relaxation time constant. Our recent study attributed this effect of fibers on stress relaxation behavior to the interfacial shear stress transfer at the fiber-matrix interface. This model explained the effect of fiber addition on stress relaxation with...

Modeling of Tensile Stress-strain Relation of Pseudo Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites

This study proposes a new comprehensive theoretical approach for predicting tensile stress-strain relation of Random Short Fiber Reinforced Cement Composites (RSFRCC) showing Pseudo Strain Hardening (PSH). This approach is grounded on solid basis of micromechanics, which describes PSH phenomenon in terms of constitutive properties of fiber, matrix, and fiber/matrix interface. The proposed model...
