Abstract

A theoretical model, consisting of a series of infinite concentric cylinders surrounding a fiber in a composite material, was introduced in this paper to give a quantitative account of interface phenomena, already experimentally observed. A series of specimens, conveniently designed to represent the theoretical model, were subjected to dynamic modes of loading to measure the amount of adhesion between fibers and matrices by means of an adhesion coefficient developed in the theory. It was found that theoretical results for the adhesion between matrix and filler were compatible with the structural characteristics of the specimens tested.
