Abstract
The consolidation equation of the thermosetting polymer matrix fiber composite materials was derived in terms of void ratio based on Darcy's law and Dave's method. Also, Gutowski's fiber deformation model was modified to be used in the derivation of the equation and a simple test method was performed to determine the constant of the modified fiber deformation equation. The derived consolidation equation was simulated by the finite difference method and the effects of pressure, permeability and viscosity on the consolidation were discussed.
