THEORETICAL APPROACH TO MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF RESINOUS COMPOSITE

This investigation evaluated the tensile and flexural properties of polystyrene resin reinforced with different weight fracture from random glass fibres (20%, 40%, and 60%)by using Ansys program version (11). The standard specification (ISO-R-527) and (ASTM D790) were used to fabricant the tensile and flexural test samples respectively by Ansys program. The theoretical data shows that high tensile and flexural strength value for polystyrene resin after reinforcing with random glass fibres and this strength will increase with increasing weight fracture of fibres.
