Abstract

How to design the interface is a fundamental issue for the composite materials. Although a little work was concerned with the mechanical design of the interface, the effect of the initial thermal stresses has not been taken into account in those studies. While the thermal stresses due to the manufacturing process and the difference in coefficient of thermal expansion between matrix and reinforcing phase, do play an important role in the properties of the composites. In terms of a concept of the neutral inclusions that do not disturb the prescribed uniform stress field in the surrounding elastic body, the interface parameters are studied with consideration of the effect of an initial thermal stress field in this paper, indicating that the effect of thermal stresses may be eliminated by the design of interface parameters.
