Original Abstract

The article proposes a method for characterizing the in situ interaction between filaments in a multifilament yarn. The stress transfer between neighboring filaments causes the reactivation of a broken filament at some distance from the break. The utilized statistical bundle models predict a change in the slope of the mean size effect curve once the specimen length becomes longer than the stress transfer length. This fact can be exploited in order to determine the stress transfer length indirectly using the yarn tensile test with appropriately chosen test lengths. The identification procedure is demonstrated using two test series of tensile tests with AR-glass and carbon yarns.
