Abstract

A three-dimensional constitutive relationship for the fiber-reinforced composite with a nonlinearly elastic matrix material is derived. The composite is modeled by a medium consisting of thin nonlinear matrix layers alternating with effective linearly elastic fibrous layers. Shear wave propagations are investigated. The formation of shock wave, its stability and growth behaviors are discussed.
