Ym. Xia et X. Wang, CONSTITUTIVE EQUATION FOR UNIDIRECTIONAL COMPOSITES UNDER TENSILE IMPACT, Composites science and technology, 56(2), 1996, pp. 155-160
On the basis of loaning-unloading tests, transient temperature rise me
asurement, and energy analysis of unidirectional fibre-reinforced epox
y under tensile impact, a coated fibre bundle model is proposed. Accor
ding to this model, a one-dimensional constitutive equation for glass-
fibre-reinforced epoxy in tensile impact tests from 300 to 2000 s(-1)
is derived from a statistical analysis of test data, and this equation
is found to have obvious physical meaning.
