Abstract: | Lightweight structures become more and more important and one great class within these structures are parts produced by injection moulding. To improve the mechanical properties of these parts short fibers are injected within the molten plastics. Now a way to describe these properties without knowing the fibre orientation exactly is needed. We show an intuitive way, how mechanical properties of short fibre reinforced composites for linear thermoelasticity can be described and show the relation to other approaches.
