Creep is one of important properties of polymer matrix composites (PMC).It can be analysis by finite element method (FEM).But creep will be affected by a lot of factors and the creep material parameters are very difficult to be obtained. Shift factors method is one simple method which can be used to obtain the creep properties by fewer tests. Here the basic method analysis of the creep of PMC by FEM was studied. Focus on the analysis of how the material parameters of finite element creep analysis needed to get through the shift factors method. Finally the actual PMC pipe structure is calculated by this method.The error of FEM result and theory result around 2%, the results show that this method has certain rationality and reliability.


In this paper, SiCp /Al2O3 composites were fabricated through directed metal oxidation process. Experimental results of these composites validated or compared with Finite Element Method (FEM). Finite Element has become one in all the foremost necessary tools offered to an engineer. The finite part methodology is employed to resolve advanced analysis issues. In this paper, Finite Element Method based ANSYS software is used to FEM model to determine mechanical properties of SiC reinforced Al2O3 matrix composite by changing volume fractions of SiC. The comparison of experimental results with Finite element analysis provides detailed information about the results of these comparisons. The FA was competent of predict the information for several scenario quite fine

The effects of SiC fiber shape, aspect ratio and loading direction on the deformation behavior of SiC fiber reinforced Al matrix composites were studied by finite element method using axisymmetric unit cell model. The results showed that the addition of reinforcements will cause constraint on the plastic flow of ductile matrix, and thus result in no-uniform stress distribution. The reinforcement shape has a pronounced effect on the overall plastic deformation of the metal matrix composites. The loading condition will cause different failure mechanisms of composites. Under tensile loading, the stress-bearing ability in the plastic region is increased with the fiber aspect ratio due to the increase in the interface between the reinforcement and matrix and the decrease in the inter-particle space.
