Hygro-elastic Internal Stresses in Porous Composite Materials: A Multi-scale Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
A multi-scale approach is devoted to the analysis of hygro-elastic internal stresses in porous composite materials. Voids in composite materials are known to cause a significant reduction of mechanical properties. Moreover, in a humid environment they also affect the moisture absorption and the induced internal stresses. In this work, a self-consistent approach is used to estimate internal stresses induced by moisture absorption in composite materials with porous matrices. This work shows that the interaction between voids and moisture has a severe impact on the transient hygro-elastic stresses at both microscopic (fiber and matrix) and macroscopic (ply) scales.

متن کاملInstabilities and pattern transformation in periodic, porous elastoplastic solid coatings.
Pattern transformation in periodic microporous elastoplastic solid coatings is caused by a buckling of the struts and a rotation of the nodes under compressive stresses. The results of a nonlinear numerical investigation confirm the critical role of the bifurcation of the periodic solid under compressive stresses. In striking contrast to the earlier observations of elastic instabilities in poro...
