    z direction(out of plane)properties for composites

    you can assume the fiber is isotropic. so the properties you need input are only E and v. The composite will be transversely isotropic in this case.

    Simulation of the Tension Strength Test Composites matierial

    Mixture theory is not good for the estimation of properties of composite materials. Try Mori-Tanaka or Self consistent method to calculation the Young's Modulus It should be lower than the value from Mixture theory
