Determination of the Size of Representative Volume Elements for Discontinuous Fibre Composites
Discontinuous fibre composites can be rapidly manufactured using automated processes, with low production costs compared with textile reinforcements [1]. The level of flexibility offered by discontinuous fibre composites can however make efficient design challenging, as additional material and process parameters complicate material selection and quality can be difficult to control compared with...
متن کاملDiscontinuous fiber-reinforced composites above critical length.
Micromechanical physics of critical fiber length, describing a minimum filament distance for resin impregnation and stress transfer, has not yet been applied in dental science. As a test of the hypothesis that 9-micron-diameter, 3-mm-long quartz fibers would increase mechanical strength over particulate-filled composites, photocure-resin-pre-impregnated discontinuous reinforcement was incorpora...
متن کامل3D Representative Volume Element Reconstruction of Fiber Composites via Orientation Tensor and Substructure Features
To provide a seamless integration of manufacturing processing simulation and fiber microstructure modeling, two new stochastic 3D microstructure reconstruction methods are proposed for two types of random fiber composites: random short fiber composites, and Sheet Molding Compounds (SMC) chopped fiber composites. A Random Sequential Adsorption (RSA) algorithm is first developed to embed statisti...
متن کاملEvaluations of the effective material properties of carbon nanotube-based composites using a nanoscale representative volume element
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess extremely high stiffness, strength and resilience, and may provide the ultimate reinforcing materials for the development of nanocomposites. In this paper, the effective mechanical properties of CNTbased composites are evaluated using a 3-D nanoscale representative volume element (RVE) based on continuum mechanics and using the finite element method (FEM). Formul...
متن کاملMicromechanism Based Material Models for Natural Fiber Composites
In tensile tests the PP/flax fiber composites clearly shows a nonlinear behavior in loading and hystheresis loops in unloading. In creep tests performed at different load levels the response was nonlinear viscoelastic, and after recovery, viscoplastic strains were detected. No degradation in stiffness could be seen and thus nonlinear viscoelasticity and viscoplasticity were assumed to be the ma...
