Fiber-matrix interfacial area reduction in fiber reinforced cements and concretes at moderate to high fiber volume fractions

The area and properties of the fiber-matrix interface in fiber reinforced cements and concretes determines the amount of stress transferred forth and back between the cement paste and the reinforcement and hence controls the mechanical properties of the composite. Fiber-fiber interaction and overlap...

الملخص:The area and properties of the fiber-matrix interface in fiber reinforced cements and concretes determines the amount of stress transferred forth and back between the cement paste and the reinforcement and hence controls the mechanical properties of the composite. Fiber-fiber interaction and overlap of fibers with fibers, voids and aggregates can dramatically decrease the efficiency of the reinforcement by reducing this interfacial area. A simple model to account for this reduction is proposed and ways to integrate it in the models describing the mechanical properties of short fiber reinforced concretes are presented. The parameters of the model are evaluated from previously published data sets and its predictions are found to compare well with experimental observations; for example, it is able to predict the non-linear variation of bending and tensile strength with increasing fiber volume fraction as well as the existence of an optimal fiber content.
