Macroscopic analysis of fiber-reinforced composite materials is done by utilising the homogenised material properties which mainly depends on individual material properties of fiber and matrix. In this study, in addition to the effect of individual material properties of constituents, the effect of the shape of fibers (inclusions) on homogenised properties is investigated by using a new methodology called peridynamics. 1st Virtual European Conference on Fracture Investigation of the effect of shape of inclusions on homogenized properties by using peridynamics Yakubu Kasimu Galadima a, *, Erkan Oterkus a , Selda Oterkus a a PeriDynamics Research Centre, Department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering, University of Strathclyde, 100 Montrose Street, Glasgow G4 0LZ, UK A st act 1.
