· The position dependent stress
given by the linear model is illustrated and compared to a model for which
the shear stress is position dependent.
· The stress distributions shown
are for a fiber longer than the transfer length. For this case the isostrain
condition is reached in the fiber's central region. For an inter-fiber spacing
of 2R and b as defined below:
