Abstract

The paper studies the influence of CNTs on the elastic properties of unidirectionally aligned composites. The nano-inclusions, whose properties could be characterized by three parameters (length, diameter, Young’s elastic modulus), are assumed to be ellipsoidal and oriented along a macro-filler (for example, glass fibers). The elastic properties of two systems: Matrix+CNT+Glass fibers and Matrix+Glass fibers were determined and compared.
