Fiber Volume Fraction ($\nu_f$)
The volume fraction of the reinforcement/) phase is perhaps the most direct determinant of mechanical properties. For continuous, aligned fibers, the tensile strength ($\sigma_c$) can often be approximated by the Rule of Mixtures:
$$\sigmac = \sigmaf \nuf + \sigmam' (1 - \nu_f)$$
Where $\sigmaf$ is the fiber strength, $\nuf$ is the fiber volume fraction, and $\sigma_m'$ is the stress in the [matrix](/entries/matr… -
