Im trying to solve Fraction of fibers in a composite if elas
I’m trying to solve Fraction of fibers in a composite, if elastic deformation has 39% load. And if it is has polyester reinforced and E-glass fiber. How can I calculate the fraction of fibers if
E polyester = 9 Gpa
E Glass = 69 Gpa
Please watch units
Solution
Solution:-
Ep = 9 Gpa
Eg = 69 Gpa
Ap = 39% of load = 0.39 of load
Ag = 61% of load = 0.61 of load
Eequivalent = (ApEp + AgEg)/( Ap + Ag)
Eequivalent = ( 0.39 * 9 + 0.61 *69)/ ( 0.39 + 0.61)
Eequivalent = 45.6 Gpa
