![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Micromechanics modeling of viscoelastic properties of hybrid composites with shunted and arbitrarily oriented piezoelectric inclusions Micromechanics modeling of viscoelastic properties of hybrid composites with shunted and arbitrarily oriented piezoelectric inclusions](/preview/png/800757.png)
A comprehensive micromechanics model is developed to estimate the effective viscoelastic properties of hybrid composites containing polymer matrix, conductive inclusions and shunted piezoelectric inclusions. The model is derived using the viscoelastic correspondence principle in conjunction with the Mori–Tanaka approach and the orientation averaging scheme. Three dimensional complex moduli are explicitly presented for hybrid composites with any orientation distribution. The model is first validated by comparison with available experimental results. Then, the loss factors are examined for hybrid composites with inclusions of various volume fractions and of shapes ranging from thin disks to long fibers. It is seen that hybrid composites with randomly oriented inclusions exhibit shear loss factors which are not possible with monolithic piezoelectric plate. Furthermore, the numerical results indicate that composites with long spheroid inclusions provide the best damping performance. The results recommend that aligned inclusion composites are good for alleviating longitudinal oscillations. If oscillation energy needs to be dissipated in all directions and for all modes, three dimensional random composites should be used. It is also observed that spherical inclusion composites cannot improve shear damping irrespective of the orientation and the volume fraction. In general, to achieve a pronounced damping piezoelectric inclusions that lie in aspect ratio range 0.1⩽α⩽20.1⩽α⩽2 should be avoided.
