The Elastic Modulus of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) with Random Distribution of Aggregate and Fiber
The present paper offers a meso-scale numerical model to investigate the effects of random distribution of aggregate particles and steel fibers on the elastic modulus of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete (SFRC). Meso-scale model distinctively models coarse aggregate, cementitious mortar, and Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) between aggregate, mortar, and steel fibers with their respective materi...
متن کاملEffects of Fiber Length and Fiber Orientation Distributions on the Tensile Strength of Short-fiber-reinforced Polymers
This paper presents an analytical method considering the effects of fiber length and fiber orientation distributions for predicting the tensile strength (TS) of short-fiber-reinforced polymers (SFRP). Two probability density functions are used for modelling the distributions of fiber length and fiber orientation. The strength of SFRP is derived as a functiolz of fiber length and fiber orientati...
متن کاملFiber–fiber interactions in carbon mat thermoplastics
Carbon mat thermoplastics (CMT) consisting of 12.7 mm long, chopped carbon fibers in a polypropylene matrix were manufactured using the wetlay technique at fiber volume fractions (FVF) from 10% to 25%, and tests simulating the compression molding process were conducted. The packing stress of the CMT followed a power law relation with FVF. A single fiber pull-out fixture was used to measure the ...
متن کاملOptimizing fiber orientation in fiber-reinforced materials using efficient upscaling
We present an efficient algorithm to find an optimal fiber orientation in composite materials. Within a two-scale setting fiber orientation is regarded as a function in space on the macrolevel. The optimization problem is formulated within a function space setting which makes the imposition of smoothness requirements straightforward and allows for rather general convex objective functionals. We...
متن کاملShort fiber reinforced composite: the effect of fiber length and volume fraction.
AIM The aim of this study was to determine the effect of short fiber volume fraction and fiber length on some mechanical properties of short fiber-reinforced composite (FRC). METHODS AND MATERIALS Test specimens (2 x 2 x 25 mm3) and (9.5 x 5.5 x 3 mm3) were made from short random FRC and prepared with different fiber volumes (0%-22%) and fiber lengths (1-6 mm). Control specimens did not conta...
