Tensile Strength of Fiber from Longitudinal Tensile Strength of Composite Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Tensile Strength of Fiber = (Longitudinal Strength of Composite-Tensile Strength of Matrix*(1-Volume Fraction of Fiber))/Volume Fraction of Fiber
σf = (σcl-σm*(1-Vf))/Vf
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Tensile Strength of Fiber - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Strength of Fiber refers to the maximum stress a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before breaking.
Longitudinal Strength of Composite - (Measured in Pascal) - Longitudinal Strength of Composite to its strength along the direction of the fibers or reinforcement.
Tensile Strength of Matrix - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Strength of Matrix is the strength of matrix material 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
Longitudinal Strength of Composite: 31.825 Megapascal --> 31825000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Tensile Strength of Matrix: 70 Megapascal --> 70000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Volume Fraction of Fiber: 0.6 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
σf = (σclm*(1-Vf))/Vf --> (31825000-70000000*(1-0.6))/0.6
Evaluating ... ...
σf = 6375000
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
6375000 Pascal -->6.375 Megapascal (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
6.375 Megapascal <-- Tensile Strength of Fiber

What are polymer matrix composites (PMC)?

Polymer matrix composites have organic polymer matrix with strengthening fibers in the matrix. Matrix holds and protects the fibers 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 the normal reinforced plastics and are used in aerospace applications. Reinforced plastics are relatively inexpensive and are widely used.
