The predictions of the Halpin equation concerning the effect of fibre volume fraction and fibre aspect ratio on the effective tensile modulus of uniaxially aligned short-fibre composites are compared with computational experiments on three-dimensional, multiparticle composite samples. The method of boundary elements is used to model the mechanical behaviour of composite specimens consisting of up to 40 discrete aligned fibres randomly dispersed in an elastic matrix. Statistical averages of computational results relating the effective tensile modulus to the aspect ratio and volume fraction of the fibres are found to agree very well with the predictions of the Halpin equation for fibre aspect ratio up to 10 and fibre volume fractions up to 20%. Computational results seem to indicate that the predictions of the Halpin equation fall bellow those of micro-mechanical models at higher volume fractions.

In micro-injection molding, the interaction between the polymer and the mold insert has an important effect on demolding quality of nanostructure. An all-atom molecular dynamics simulation method was performed to study the effect of nanostructure shape, interfacial adhesion energy, and mold insert material on demolding quality of nanostructures. The deformation behaviors of nanostructures were analyzed by calculating the non-bonded interaction energies, the density distributions, the radii of gyration, the potential energies, and the snapshots of the demolding stage. The nanostructure shape had a direct impact on demolding quality. When the contact areas were the same, the nanostructure shape did not affect the non-bonded interaction energy at PP-Ni interface. During the demolding process, the radii of gyration of molecular chains were greatly increased, and the overall density was decreased significantly. After assuming that the mold insert surface was coated with an anti-stick coating, the surface burrs, the necking, and the stretching of nanostructures were significantly reduced after demolding. The deformation of nanostructures in the Ni and Cu mold inserts were more serious than that of the Al2O3 and Si mold inserts. In general, this study would provide theoretical guidance for the design of nanostructure shape and the selection of mold insert material.
