On Adequacy of Two-point Averaging Schemes for Composites with Nonlinear Viscoelastic Phases

Finite element simulations on fibrous composites with nonlinear viscoelastic response of the matrix phase are performed to explain why so called two-point averaging schemes may fail to deliver a realistic macroscopic response. Nevertheless, the potential of two-point averaging schemes (the overall r...
