I’m trying to make a comparation between prediction methods (like the Rule Of Mixtures, Halpin-Tsai and FEM) and real tests made in unidirectional fiber reinforced composites.
For this purpose i need the properties of the fiber and matrix (Young modulus, poison) and the composite test...
Im tryng to use FEM to make a model of a cell of a typical laminate composite. In this fase im comparing known results of material properties (like young modulus and so on) with the data given to me by a FEM program (ADINA) and FE models i create for each test.
Im having trouble defining the...
