Abstract

Short Fiber Reinfored Thermoplastics (SFRTs) like PA66GF composites are highly heterogeneous materials with a rather complex microstructure such that the characterization and the prediction of their mechanical behavior remain quite challenging. So far, most of the research efforts have employed phenomenologigal and mean-field multi-scale models to deal with SFRTs. The present contribution rather focuses on a full-field multi-scale approach that incorporates advanced techniques in terms of microstructural representation and material modeling, allowing a deep insight of the dominating deformation mechanisms occurring in PA66GF composites. The proposed approach is based on an automatic periodic mesh generation algorithm for matrix-inclusion Representative Volume Elements (RVE) with randomly positioned fibers that follow a given Orientation Distribution Function (ODF). At the microscopic scale, while the fibers are assumed to be elastic, the behavior of the thermoplastic matrix is described by a phenomenological multi-mechanism constitutive model accounting for viscoelasticity, viscoplasticity and ductile damage. It results an advanced multi-scale model that enables to visualize the local deformation and degradation mechanisms occurring at the microscopic scale while simultaneously analyzing their influence on the macroscopic response of the composite upon monotonic, persistent and cyclic loading. The potential of the proposed approach is further evaluated by comparing the predicted responses against experimental data.
