Abstract
An attempt is made to find a solution by which the effect of neighboring filler particles on the strength of composites could be indirectly estimated. The stresses in composites with a great amount of filler are calculated. Composites based on epoxy-resin binder are tested. A comparison of different models shows that the modified Kerner model reflects only the tendency for the compression strength to change with the degree of filling. The relations between the compression strength and the degree of filling are better described by models allowing for constraint of the plastic deformations of the matrix. However, in this case, the effect of the neighboring particles is not properly taken into account.
