Combined weakest link and random defect model for describing strength variability in fibres

A mathematical model which describes the strength variability along the length of a fibre was developed. The model is a combination of the modified weakest link and random defect models. This combined model describes very well the strength variability data of aramid fibres. Five Kevlar fibres are te...

Description
Summary:A mathematical model which describes the strength variability along the length of a fibre was developed. The model is a combination of the modified weakest link and random defect models. This combined model describes very well the strength variability data of aramid fibres. Five Kevlar fibres are tested.
