Abstract
A binary mixture theory is developed for wave guide-type propagation in laminated and undirectional fibrous composites. In particular, a rational construction of both mixture interaction and constitutive relations is given. The resulting theory contains microstructure.The domain of validity of the mixture theory is determined by comparison of the phase velocity spectrum with exact and/or experimental results. The utility of the model is demonstrated for both laminated and fibrous composites by correlating theoretical and experimental transient pulse data on boron-carbon phenolic and Thornelcarbon phenolic laminates, and uni-directional fibrous quartz phenolic.
