dc.description.abstract In this study, we utilized the material design library in Ansys Product 2022 R1 to analyze the impact of short plant fibers on the mechanical properties of epoxy resin. We employed the representative volume element (RVE) approach and examined different volume fractions up to 50%. The technique employed in this study was multi-scale modeling based on the finite element method (FEM) for numerical homogenization. Subsequently, we used the same software to develop a five-layer laminated composite. The samples were based on epoxy resin enriched with short plant fibers at fractions of 20% and 30%, as well as pure epoxy resin. The laminated composites were reinforced with carbon fibers. The objective of this study was to analyze the mechanical response of each sample during a tensile test, focusing on multiple parameters. The sought-after results included total deformation, directional deformation, equivalent and elastic stress (Von-mises). The samples containing epoxy resin enriched with 30% of short hemp fibers exhibited remarkable mechanical strength compared to the other samples. These results suggest that the incorporation of short hemp fibers into the matrix led to a significant improvement in the mechanical strength of the composite.
