Determine the strength of an al-boron composite


Solve the following problem:

Give an approximate value for the compressive strength of an Al-Boron composite with Vf = 0.4. Aluminum 2024 has E = 71GPa, Poisson = 0.334, G = 26.6 GP a, yield strength = 76 MP a, fatigue limit = 90 MP a, elongation = 22%. Boron fibers have E = 400 GP a, ultimate strength = 3.4 GP a, Poisson = 0.25. Note that Boron fibers tend to be perfectly straight and that aluminum has a linear shear stress-strain plot before it yields.
