Thermodynamical consistency of an anisotropic meanfield damage model for SMC composites

This contribution investigates the thermodynamic consistency of a meanfield damage model published by the authors [1]. The model is based on an empirical description of the fiber orientation distribution function (FODF). Due to a combination of matrix damage and fiber‐matrix interface debonding, the...

Description
Summary:This contribution investigates the thermodynamic consistency of a meanfield damage model published by the authors [1]. The model is based on an empirical description of the fiber orientation distribution function (FODF). Due to a combination of matrix damage and fiber‐matrix interface debonding, the model is able to predict the inhomogeneous and anisotropic evolution of the overall behavior of the considered Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) composite.
