4.2.1.3 Fiber with Toe-Linear Response
This material type is “fiber-pow-linear”. The following material parameters need to be defined:
| <E> | the fiber modulus in the linear range ( | [P] |
| <beta> | the power-law exponent in the toe region ( | [ ] |
| <lam0> | the stretch ratio when the toe region transitions to the linear region ( | [ ] |
The fiber strain energy density is given by where , Example:
Fiber model as specified in a solid mixture (Section 4.1.3.22↑)
