Notes:
Three types of pressure dependent deformation processes have been observed for the short glass fiber reinforced composites of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC). A unique deformation behavior, observed for the first time, features a sharp drop in stress followed by shear yielding in the matrix. Competitive pressure dependent failure processes in the composites are strongly affected by “debonding” at the fiber-matrix interface. A new general pressure dependent yield criterion for PVC and its composites was elucidated.
