Abstract EN
This paper aims to investigate the comprehensive influence of three microstructure parameters (fiber cross-section shape, fiber volume fraction, and fiber off-axis orientation) and strain rate on the macroscopic property of a polymer matrix composite.
During the analysis, AS4 fibers are considered as elastic solids, while the surrounding PEEK resin matrix exhibiting rate sensitivities are described using the modified Ramaswamy-Stouffer viscoplastic state variable model.
The micromechanical method based on generalized model of cells has been used to analyze the representative volume element of composites.
An acceptable agreement is observed between the model predictions and experimental results found in the literature.
The research results show that the stress-strain curves are sensitive to the strain rate and the microstructure parameters play an important role in the behavior of polymer matrix.
