I'm simulating the externally CFRP strengthened RC beams in ANSYS15 apdl. Could I input the Ey and Ez as a zero due to CFRP in my model is unidirectional? How about Gyz, Gxy and Gxz?
Ey and Ez are very small compsred to Ex in UD composites. But they should not be zero, but have the E of the matrix material. I think you could use a small value, such as Ey=Ez=Ex/100
In general for unidirectional ply, on has longitudinal Ex and transverse Ey, and consequently Gxy. These elastic constants are governed by the fiber and matrix properties.
If one assumes the simplest (zero-order) model, which is a monotropic model that ignores the stiffness of the matrix and assumes that the ply works only along the direction of the fiber, then one has only the longitudinal Ex, while the rest are zeros.
Ey and Ez are not zero for UD composites, refer Analysis and Performance of Fiber Composites, 3rd Edition. For shear strength calculation refer "The Theory of Materials Failure" by Christensen, Richard M.
