Abstract

An electromagnetic and thermal model of carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite material is introduced. This model takes into account the influence of different fiber orientations on the electromagnetic parameters. These parameters are defined in microscopic scale and introduced in finite-element-method model in macroscopic scale.
