Property Prediction of Composites with Different Fiber Volume Fractions by Representative Volume Element Method

Abstract:

In this paper, a representative volume element (RVE) model of composites with different fiber volume fraction is established by ANSYS finite element software. The stiffness matrix of the RVE model can be calculated by studying its stress field, and then the elastic properties of composites could be obtained. By comparing with the results from NASA empirical equation, the reliability of the method can be proved. This is a new way to predict the elastic properties of composites.
