Abstract Deduction of equations for short fibers
I.
For this system we can consider also the shear force acting in
the same direction as the strength. For the second force
reacting to the strength force we have the same force plus a
differential of this load.

The eq. 9 is a general equation for the strength of the fiber, but
there are some cases that are necessary to have in mind.
One of these cases is when l>lc.
cd = f V f + m ( 1V f )

cd = f V f 1

B. Longitudinal Strength (l<lc)
Following the same procedure for the case before, and
considering.
Fig. 2 l > lc
The past graph show the behavior of the strength and the
maximum strength for that characteristics of the length of
fiber. We can take some important points from that graph. One
important thing is to notice how the maximum load affect all
the fiber; the maximum strength can be supported in a big part
of the fiber.

(2) l-lc
These two assumptions can be assumed since the the
maximum strength are acting in the half of the fiber (case 2)
and the other (1) are the ramp shown on the graph that are
associated with the half of the critical length.
To obtain the medium strength for the fiber is necessary to
multiply the area on the curve strength-length of fiber and
divide for the length of fiber.
We have
1
f ( ll c ) + f ( l c )

f=
l
Simplifying
For this case we notice that even the fiber doesnt reach the
maximum strength to get fail, so, the maximum stress can be
assumed at the center of the fiber (x=0).
Know substituting this value in equation (9), we have

As the fig (4) the type of orientation are going to define the
type of the behavior on the composite affecting the efficiency

Ecl =KE f V f + E m V m
(19)
This value are going to depend only in the type of
configuration of the fiber and how these fibers are oriented
plus the fraction of the total fibers.
Next, we have some values for the factor.
o = ai cos 4

CONCLUSION
It can be concluded that the behavior of the fibers will
depend almost solely on the length you have, this will give
different properties, besides the difficulty of analysis for each
of them; It is not possible to define equations that arrangement
