Mechanical behavior of irregular fibers part II : non-linear tensile behavior
journal contribution
posted on 2001-11-01, 00:00 authored by W He, Xungai Wang, S ZhangTo further our study of the linear tensile behavior of irregular fibers, in this paper we examine the nonlinear tensile behavior of irregular fibers. As before, we simulate the fiber dimensional irregularities with sine waves of different magnitude and frequency, and report results on the tensile behavior and gauge length effect of the simulated fibers.
