Elastoplastic modelling of multi-phase fiber-reinforced composites with void growth using transformation field analysis and the governing parameter method

Fiber-reinforced composites have many advantages over conventional engineering materials. However. the intrinsic inhomogeneities of fiber-reinforced composites have made the prediction of the mechanical behavior of such a material a great challenge over the past three decades. In this dissertation,...
