A viscoelastic-viscoplastic model for short-fibre reinforced polymers with complex fibre orientations

This paper presents an innovative approach for the modelling of viscous behaviour of short-fibre reinforced composites (SFRC) with complex distributions of fibre orientations and for a wide range of strain rates. As an alternative to more complex homogenisation methods, the model is based on an addi...
