Folgar-Tucker Model
text:
The Folgar-Tucker-Equation (FTE) is a widespread and commercially applied model to describe the fiber orientation in injection molding simulations of fiber composites. The equation is based on Jeffrey's equation for fibers suspended in melts, but, in addition, accounts for fiber-fiber interactions.
Tucker and Advani then integrate over an ensemble of fibers and hence obtain an evolution equation for the orientation/alignment tensor
as a Field (physics).
A compact way to express it is d A d t = W
