Consider a bone plate made of randomly oriented fibers in


Consider a bone plate made of randomly oriented fibers in three dimensions. The fiber and matrix materials are carbon fiber and PMMA. Assume carbon fiber has a modulus of 500GPa and PMMA's elastic modulus is 3 GPa. For a volume fraction of 30% fibers, what is the elastic modulus of the composite material? Compare this with a metal implant and discuss the implications.
