## Abstract Fiber orientation induced by injection mold filling of short‐fiber‐reinforced thermoplastics (FRTP) causes anisotropy in material properties and warps molded parts. Predicting fiber orientation is important for part and mold design to produce sound molded parts. A numerical scheme is pr
