- Abstract
We present a stochastic approach combining Bayesian Inference (BI) with homogenization theories in order to identify, on the one hand, the parameters inherent to the model assumptions and, on the other hand, the composite material constituents behaviors, including their variability. In particular, we characterize the model parameters of a Mean-Field Homogenization (MFH) model and the elastic matrix behavior, including the inherent dispersion in its Young's modulus, of non-aligned Short Fibers Reinforced Polymer (SFRP) composites. The inference is achieved by considering as observations experimental tests conducted at the SFRP composite coupons level. The inferred model and material law parameters can in turn be used in Mean-Field Homogenization (MFH)-based multi-scale simulations and can predict the confidence range of the composite material responses.
