This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Elastic Modulus Composite (Transverse Direction) - (Measured in Pascal) - Elastic Modulus Composite (Transverse Direction) refers to a direction perpendicular to the main orientation of the material's fibers or reinforcements.
Elastic Modulus of Matrix - (Measured in Pascal) - Elastic Modulus of Matrix typically refers to the elastic modulus or young's modulus of the material composing the matrix phase in a composite material.
Elastic Modulus of Fiber - (Measured in Pascal) - Elastic Modulus of Fiber, also known as young's modulus, refers to the stiffness of the material, it represents the ratio of stress to strain within the elastic limit of the material.
Volume Fraction of Matrix - Volume Fraction of Matrix is the Volume fraction of the matrix used in composite.
Volume Fraction of Fiber - Volume Fraction of Fiber also known as fiber volume fraction or simply fiber fraction, is a measure of the volume occupied by fibers within a composite material.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Elastic Modulus of Matrix: 200.025 Megapascal --> 200025000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Elastic Modulus of Fiber: 200 Megapascal --> 200000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Volume Fraction of Matrix: 0.4 --> No Conversion Required
Volume Fraction of Fiber: 0.6 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ect = (Em*Ef)/(Vm*Ef+Vf*Em) --> (200025000*200000000)/(0.4*200000000+0.6*200025000)
Evaluating ... ...
Ect = 200009999.250056
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
200009999.250056 Pascal -->200.009999250056 Megapascal (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
200.009999250056 200.01 Megapascal <-- Elastic Modulus Composite (Transverse Direction)

What are polymer matrix composites (PMC)?

Polymer matrix composites have an organic polymer matrix with strengthening fibres in the matrix. Matrix holds and protects the fibres in place while transmitting the load to them. Advanced composites are a class of Polymer matrix composites that have high mechanical properties (strength and stiffness) compared to normal reinforced plastics and are used in aerospace applications. Reinforced plastics are relatively inexpensive and are widely used.
