Micro-Mechanics of Failure (MMF) for Continuous Fiber Reinforced Composites: (2008, methodology): “A simple schematic illustration of the typical traction-separation law describing the interface behavior can be found in references [46, 47 ].”
Computational micromechanics of the transverse and shear behavior of unidirectional fiber reinforced polymers including environmental effects (2017, background): “Other authors assumed an arbitrarily large fiber/matrix interface 329 strength in order to capture this effect [3] leading to unrealistic predictions of the in-plane and 330 transverse tension strengths.”
Micromechanical analysis of polymer composites reinforced by unidirectional fibres: Part I – Constitutive modelling (2013, methodology): “Llorca and co-workers (e.g., González and LLorca, 2007; Canal et al., 2009; Totry et al., 2008a,b) have been conducting micromechanical analyses on representative volume elements (RVEs) by applying an elasto-plastic constitutive model to the matrix and implementing cohesive elements in the…”
