Numerical prediction of thermal conductivity in ZrB2-particulate-reinforced epoxy composites based on finite element models

Epoxy composites reinforced by Zirconium diboride (ZrB2) particles were investigated by finite element models (FEMs). It helped to explore the relationship between the thermal conductivity of composites and the volume fraction, size, shape, orientation, and arrangement of the ZrB2 particles. The res...
