Abstract—A mathematical model has been developed to calculate the force of uniaxial tension of a fiber-reinforced composite material (FCM) with an anisotropic matrix when fibers are destroyed. The proposed model takes into account the crystallographic texture of the matrix material and the direction of fiber laying, which allows us to formulate requirements for the texture improving the strength of FCM. The performed analysis has demonstrated that the crystallographic orientations of deformation type provide higher strength properties of FCM in comparison with those of recrystallization type. The highest increase in the strength is observed upon reinforcement by fibers at an angle of about 45° to the rolling direction if the structure of the sheet is comprised of orientations of deformation type. For the orientations of recrystallization type, reinforcement should be performed in the rolling direction ({100}〈001〉, {110}〈001〉); for the orientation {100}〈001〉, it should be additionally performed in the transverse direction.
