Abstract

Previous theoretical work on fibre pull-out from an elastic matrix is briefly discussed and its relation to this present work is indicated. The form of the distribution of shear stress and that of load along the fibre length is determined and its dependence on the elastic properties and fibre length is shown. The theory has been developed to account for the debonding of fibres from the matrix. The maximum fibre load necessary to cause complete debonding and subsequent pull-out is determined and the dependence of the maximum shear stress on the effective embedded fibre length is shown to affect the shear strength calculated from a pull-out test.
