Finite plane deformations of elastic solids reinforced with fibers resistant to flexure: complete solution
Download2018-01-12
A model for the deformation of an elastic solid reinforced by embedded fibers is presented in which elastic resistance of the fibers to bending is incorporated. Within the framework of strain-gradient elasticity, we formulated the equilibrium equations and necessary boundary conditions which...

Mechanics of an elastic solid reinforced with bidirectional fiber in finite plane elastostatics: complete analysis
Download2018-01-01
A continuum-based model is presented for the mechanics of bidirectional composites subjected to finite plane deformations. This is framed in the development of a constitutive relation within which the constraint of material incompressibility is augmented. The elastic resistance of the fibers is...
