A mean-field homogenisation scheme with CZM-based interfaces describing progressive inclusions debonding

Abstract

The objective of the present study is to describe the progressive debonding of inclusions in particle or fibre reinforced composites. To do so, the mean-field homogenisation scheme of Mori-Tanaka is enriched to take into account imperfect interfaces. The interfaces are modelled by a bilinear Cohesive Zone Model (CZM) taking into account normal and tangential effects. Results obtained with this new mean-field homogenisation scheme are compared to 2D FE-based numerical simulations that are used as reference results. The effects of inclusions volume fraction and size are also observed.
