A composite material is made of 50 % uniaxial glass fibers and 50% epoxy resin. The epoxy matrix is cured at 150ºC and then cooled to 25ºC. The elastic modulus of the glass fibers is 76 GPa, and the thermal expansion coefficient is 5×10-6 °C-1 . The elastic modulus of the epoxy resin is 4 GPa, and the thermal expansion coefficient is 60×10-6 °C-1 .

(a) Calculate the thermal stresses, both the magnitude and sign, in the matrix and in the fibers after the cured composite is cooled to room temperature. Assume that each material is elastic. (b) Calculate the composite strain in cooling from 150°C to 25°C.
