description | In this paper, we established a progressive multiscale model for a plain-woven composite with hollow microfibers and beads and investigated the general conductive thermal response. Micromechanic techniques were employed to predict the effective conductivity coefficients of the extracted representative volume elements (RVEs) at different scales, which were then transferred to higher scales for progressive homogenization. A structural RVE was finally established to study the influence of microscale parameters, such as phase volume fraction, the thickness of the fibers/beads, etc., on the effective and localized behavior of the composite system It was concluded that the volume fraction of the hollow glass beads (HGBs) and the thickness of the hollow fibers (HFs) had a significant effect on the effective thermal coefficients of the plain-woven composites. Furthermore, it was found that an increasing HGB volume fraction had a more significant effect in reducing the thermal conductivity of composite. The present simulations provide guidance to future experimental testing. |
