A Continuum Damage-Based Anisotropic Hyperelastic Fatigue Model for Short Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyamide 66

A phenomenological 3D anisotropic nonlinear fatigue damage model has been developed for a short glass fiber-reinforced polyamide. The model is formulated within the framework of continuum damage mechanics and is based on a proposed anisotropic hyperelastic strain energy function. The proposed model...

description A phenomenological 3D anisotropic nonlinear fatigue damage model has been developed for a short glass fiber-reinforced polyamide. The model is formulated within the framework of continuum damage mechanics and is based on a proposed anisotropic hyperelastic strain energy function. The proposed model accounts for the effects of fiber content and nonlinear material behavior. The mechanical behavior of polyamide reinforced with 20% and 30% wt short glass fiber has been experimentally investigated under quasi-static and fatigue loading. Fatigue tests under bending loading are carried out on rectangular specimens cut in the parallel and perpendicular direction to the mold flow direction. The proposed fatigue damage model allows predicting the fatigue damage of composite materials reinforced with short fiberglass, considering fiber orientation and fiber content. The model is used to predict the damage evolution and the number of cycles to failure, and good agreement between predicted values and experimental data is observed.
