Özet
Additive Manufacturing or Three dimensional (3D) printing is a new
technology widely used to produce three-dimensional parts. 3D polymerbased printers have become easily accessible to the public. Recently, a new
kind of 3D printer has been developed to manufacture printed polymer
composites reinforced with continuous or short fibers. Usually, the
technology used by these 3D printers is Fused Deposition Modelling
(FDM). The aim of this study is to predict the mechanical properties of
printed materials in Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites using a
micromechanical approach. Indeed, the main idea of this approach is to
characterize the effective mechanical properties from a microstructural
description of the heterogeneous materials and the knowledge of the local
behavior of constituents using the homogenization process. The predictions
of the effective mechanical properties were confronted with experimental
data obtained from the literature. The difference between the predicted and
experimental values does not exceed 28.6%. The micromechanical
approach is a good tool for designers to estimate the mechanical properties
of fiber-reinforced 3D printed polymer composites which require specific
mechanical properties.
