heal.abstract	A theoretical expression for the prediction of the transverse elastic modulus in fiber-reinforced composites was developed. The concept of interphase between fibers and matrix was used for the development of the model. This model considers that the composite material consists of three phases, that is, the fiber, the matrix, and the interphase. The latter is the part of the polymer matrix lying at the close vicinity of the fiber surface. In the present investigation it was assumed that the interphase is inhomogeneous in nature with continuously varying mechanical properties. Different laws of variation of its elastic modulus and Poisson ratio were taken into account in order to define the overall modulus of the composite. Thermal analysis method was used for the estimation of the thickness of the interphase. The results obtained were compared with the respective values of other models as well as with experimental data.	en
