Stochastic simulation of woven composites forming
A stochastic forming simulation procedure is developed and implemented to investigate the effect of geometric variability in pre-impregnated woven textiles on manufacturing. Image analysis is used to characterise variability in tow directions and unit cell size in a pre-impregnated carbon/epoxy satin weave textile. It is found that variab ility in tow orientations is significant, whereas variab...
متن کاملThermomechanical Properties of Woven Fabric Composites
The in-plane thermo-elastic behaviour of woven fabric reinforced composites is analysed using a combination of published micromechanics and finite element techniques. The repetitive unit of an arbitrary woven fabric composite is divided into elements of which the thermo-elastic properties are determined using micromechanics. The properties of the repetitive unit are obtained using the finite el...
متن کامل3d Woven Composites for Energy Absorbing Applications
Due to the presence of through-thickness reinforcement, 3D woven composites have superior fracture toughness, fatigue life, and damage tolerance compared to laminated composites. Furthermore, 3D woven composites exhibit a progressive damage behavior which is more benign than the typical catastrophic failure behavior of laminated composites. These properties lead to high specific energy absorpti...
متن کاملImpact Damage in Woven Fabric Reinforced Composites
INTRODUCTION Very often, woven fabrics are used as the reinforcement in advanced composite materials. Although the resulting inplane stiffness is lower than of their unidirectional counterparts, the excellent drapability of these materials eases the production of more general doubly curved components. In addition, the inherently low out-of-plane strength of these layered materials improves due ...
متن کاملForming simulation of a thermoplastic commingled woven textile on a double dome
This paper presents thermoforming experiments and FE simulations of a commingled glass-PP woven composite on a double dome geometry, with the aim of assessing the correspondence of predicted and experimental shear angles. Large local deformations especially in-plane shear, i.e. relative rotation between the two yarn families – occur when draping a textile on a three dimensional part and eventua...
