Abstract

The anisotropic mechanical behavior of a continuous fiber reinforced Ti alloy matrix composite which possesses a weak fiber matrix interface is modeled numerically. Effects of interface properties and residual stresses incurred during the fabrication are addressed in detail. The computational modeling is guided by comparison with experimental data. The study provides an understanding which will be used to model the multiaxial behavior of weakly bonded composites and to provide a tool for predicting the failure of composite structures.
