Title A two-velocity model of elasto-visco-plastic deformation of composite materials
Author(s) K. V. Kukudzhanov (Moscow)
Abstract A model representing an inhomogeneous composite material as a homogeneous anisotropic elasto-visco-plastic medium was proposed in [1]. That model was used for solving some nonstationary problems of dynamic deformation and fracture of inelastic laminated composite bodies. This approach yields fairly good averaged characteristics of the stress-strain state, but it does not describe the local effects related to the heterogeneous structure of the composite, although these effects may be considerable, especially in dynamical problems. In this connection, a number of attempts [2-7] were undertaken to examine these effects in elastic as well as inelastic composites.

In the present paper, multi-velocity models of continuous media are used to model a two-phase composite material consisting of elastic fibres or layers supported by an inelastic viscoplastic matrix. We obtain a complete system of dynamical equations which take into account the elasto-visco-plastic interaction of the matrix and the fibers. This system is used in the second part of the paper for the investigation of the differences between one- and two-velocity models. The results obtained are compared with experimental data, which confirms the advantage of this approach.
