Hence, the thickness of the fiber layer in Element 2 is vfL. 11.1.1 Longitudinal Young Modulus E 1 Element 1 is subjected to a force F1 in the fiber direction. The force, distributed over the surface, is (Fig. 11.3) F1 = σ1A, (11.8) where σ1 is the average normal stress across the entire cross-sectional area A (A = L2). Part of the force is carried by the fibers and part by the matrix. Thus, we write σ1A = Afσ f 1 + Amσm1, (11.9) Af and Am are the cross-sectional areas of the fiber bundle and the matrix, respectively. When the Poisson effect is neglected, the normal stresses in the composite σ1, in the fiber bundle σ f 1, and in the matrix σm1 are σ1 = 1E1 σf1 = f1Ef1 σm1 = m1Em, (11.10) where E1 and Ef1 are the composite and the fiber longitudinal Young moduli and Em is the matrix Young modulus, respectively. Equations (11.9) and (11.10) give 1E1 = Af A f1Ef1 + Am A m1Em. (11.11) The elongations L and, hence, the longitudinal normal strains of the composite 1, the matrix m1, and the fiber f1 are equal: 1 = f1 = m1. (11.12) The volume fractions are vf = Af A vm = Am A . (11.13) Equations (11.11)–(11.13) result in the following expression for the longitudinal Young modulus of the composite in terms of the fiber and matrix moduli: E1 = vfEf1 + vm Em = vfEf1 + (1 − vf) Em.
