Interfacial Micromechanics in Fibrous Composites: Design, Evaluation, and Models

Abstract EN

Recent advances of interfacial micromechanics in fiber reinforced composites using micro-Raman spectroscopy are given.

The faced mechanical problems for interface design in fibrous composites are elaborated from three optimization ways: material, interface, and computation.

Some reasons are depicted that the interfacial evaluation methods are difficult to guarantee the integrity, repeatability, and consistency.

Micro-Raman study on the fiber interface failure behavior and the main interface mechanical problems in fibrous composites are summarized, including interfacial stress transfer, strength criterion of interface debonding and failure, fiber bridging, frictional slip, slip transition, and friction reloading.

The theoretical models of above interface mechanical problems are given.
