Abstract
The method of cells is a composite model that is capable to predict the overall behavior of composite materials from the knowledge of the properties of the phases. The method was recently employed to generate initial and subsequent yield surfaces of metal matrix composites, and to establish their instantaneous stiffnesses. The overall instantaneous properties of metal matrix composites are employed for the determination of plastic bifurcation buckling loads of metal matrix laminated plates. Applications are given for elastic-viscoplastic matrices reinforced by perfectly elastic fibers.
