Abstract
THE MECHANICAL properties for carbon fibers are determined in terms of
the elastic moduli of single crystal graphite. This is done for the t
wo basic fiber microstructures, radial and onion skin. The final resul
ts are found through a transformation from cylindrically orthotropic t
o transversely isotropic properties. One of the five independent prope
rties is found to be strongly influenced by the microstructure type.
