摘要
Viscoelastic stress relaxation of glass fibre reinforcements is commonly encountered in the manufacture of glass fibre reinforced polymer composites. A better understanding of the phenomenon, coupled with an ability to predict this behaviour, will aid improved manufacturing process control and tooling design. Finished product quality may also be bettered by virtue of increased knowledge of stresses acting within the composite product. This paper presents a simple Maxwell element-based model to both simulate and help explain the viscoelastic stress relaxation of glass fibre reinforcements under compressive strain compaction of layers during composites manufacturing. The model was validated against experimental data for reinforcement materials of different architecture, and good-to-reasonable predictions of the stress relaxation response were obtained.
