Micromechanics of finite length fibers in composite materials

A theoretical model is derived to study the point-wise stress variations which occur in the constituents of a hybrid 3-D short fiber composite subjected to arbitrary homogeneous loading conditions. The model includes the capability to analyze composites containing different types of fibers, differen...
