Multiple Nonlinear Regression Analysis for the Prediction of Macroscopic Elastic Properties on Composite Containing Interphase

Article Preview

Abstract:

A convenient method to predict the macroscopic elastic performance of composite containing interphase was proposed in this paper. Firstly, a 3-D three-phase micromechanical model with randomly distributed fibers was established with the Moving Window Method (MWM), and the macroscopic elastic properties of T300/914C were predicted using energy method. Secondly, the multiple nonlinear regression correlation between the macroscopic elastic properties and micromechanical characteristic parameters of the interphase was established based on numerical data. Finally, the macroscopic elastic properties of T300/914C containing interphase were predicted using the regression model. Results indicate that the relative error for the longitudinal modulus is within ±1% while it is within ±3.5% for the transverse modulus, and shear modulus.
