A Level-Set Based Representative Volume Element Generator and XFEM Simulations for Textile and 3D-Reinforced Composites
This contribution presents a new framework for the computational homogenization of the mechanical properties of textile reinforced composites. A critical point in such computational procedures is the definition and discretization of realistic representative volume elements (RVEs). A geometrically-based weave generator has been developed to produce realistic geometrical configurations of the rei...
متن کامل3D Representative Volume Element Reconstruction of Fiber Composites via Orientation Tensor and Substructure Features
To provide a seamless integration of manufacturing processing simulation and fiber microstructure modeling, two new stochastic 3D microstructure reconstruction methods are proposed for two types of random fiber composites: random short fiber composites, and Sheet Molding Compounds (SMC) chopped fiber composites. A Random Sequential Adsorption (RSA) algorithm is first developed to embed statisti...
متن کاملDelamination Behaviour of 3d-textile Reinforced Composites – Experimental and Numerical Approaches
The requirements on aircraft engine design have increased rapidly over the last decades. Future aircrafts engines are expected to be more efficient with lower operation costs and without compromising safety. Concerning the complex requirements for fan systems or fan containments, composite materials are able to fully avail their high potential with regard to a significant weight reduction and a...
متن کاملProduction of Banana Fiber Yarns for Technical Textile Reinforced Composites
Natural fibers have been used as an alternative to synthetic ones for their greener character; banana fibers have the advantage of coming from an agricultural residue. Fibers have been extracted by mechanical means from banana tree pseudostems, as a strategy to valorize banana crops residues. To increase the mechanical properties of the composite, technical textiles can be used as reinforcement...
متن کاملDevelopment of Textile Reinforced Composites for Aircraft Structures
NASA has been a leader in development of composite materials for aircraft applications during the past 25 years. In the early 1980’s NASA and others conducted research to improve damage tolerance of composite structures through the use of toughened resins but these resins were not costeffective. The aircraft industry wanted affordable, robust structures that could withstand the rigors of flight...
