Abstract: | A simplified analysis of the dependence of the elastic properties and electrical conductivity of a carbon fiber on its orientation index is presented. The experimentally confirmed inverse correlation between the electrical resistivity and the speed of sound makes it possible to calculate the modulus of elasticity of carbon fibers from data on the bulk resistivity.Moscow Aviation Technological Institute.
