Effect of interphase on compressive strength of unidirectional composites
Abstract
An analytical method for predicting the compressive behavior of fiber composites in the presence of an interphase is presented. A monofilament configuration is selected to demonstrate the effect of interphase properties on the composites buckling strain. Each phase of the composite is modeled as a 2D linear elastic continuum. Results yielded the composite buckling strength and the associated critical wavelength.
