Abstract:
We report on our progress towards continuum rate equation modeling, as well as numerical simulations, of self-healing of fatigue in composites reinforced with glue carrying nanoporous fibers. We conclude that with the proper choice of the material parameters, effects of fatigue can be partially overcome and degradation of mechanical properties can be delayed.Keywords: SELF-HEALING MATERIALS; COMPOSITES; NANOPOROUS FIBERS; MATERIAL FATIGUE
