Present work provides a numerical tool for analyzing the variation of failure strength of Coir Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CoFRP) with respect to Fiber Volume Fraction (FVF) and Fiber Orientation Angle (FOA). A model has been developed for analyzing the failure strength of CoFRP. It is analyzed for various fiber orientation angle and fiber volume fraction. Failure strength of the CoFRP depends upon both FVF and FOA. In this analysis, it has been investigated that the analytical results for CoFRP lamina are very close to computational results. Finite element analysis scores over the experimental tests as it is more convenient and economical method of analysis. Therefore, this method is more suitable for future work.
