摘要
The orientation averaging for stiffness and thermal expansion of short fiber composites was presented. The multifiber computer models made up of identical single length fibers were also studied. It was found that during injection moulding, the mold filling process results in non-uniform fiber orientation distributions in the final injection molded short fiber reinforced composite part.
