10. For a particular application a 1 m cylindirical rod made of 65 vol % contiuous high modulus carbon fiber/ epoxy composite that has to support a maximum tensile load of 200 kN parellel to the fiber direction. a) Design the part (Determine the diameter of the bar), b) What would be the maximum length of the bar under the load. c) Determine the maximum load carried by the fibers. Fiber strength = 2000 MPa Strength of epoxy when the fibers break = 100 MPa Fiber modulus = 350 GPa Matrix modulus = 7 GPa Safety factor = 1
