STIFNESS AND STRENGTH OF ELASTIC MATRIX WITH MISORIENTED MICROCRACKS AND PROLATE SPHEROIDS

In This paper,a new andytical model is used to study the influence of misorientedmicrocracks on stiffness and strength of prolate spe roid-rei nforced composite material witheighst rain. The interaction b etween microcracks and prolate spheroids is analysed usingequlvalent inclusion method and the stress field, constitutive relation and the critical failurecondition are given.
