Micromechanical Model for Predicting the Tensile Properties of <i>Guadua angustifolia</i> Fibers Polypropylene-Based Composites

In this paper, the one-dimensional tensile behavior of <i>Guadua angustifolia</i> Kunth fibre/polypropylene (PP+GAK<sub>S</sub>) composites is modeled. The classical model of Kelly–Tyson and its Bowyer–Bader’s solution is not able to reproduce the entire stress–strain curve o...
