“…Table 1 shows for the longitudinal Young's modulus E x , that the maximum average error is shown for the iso-strain model with 11.1%. It should be noticed that in previous studies [26,27,32], the iso-strain model shows good predictions for E x when modeling 2D woven and braided composites, while it suffers with 3D angle interlock woven composites with errors exceeding the 20% [31]. Very good agreement is shown with the MOC, the Ruan and Chou and the 3SHM models with an average error under the 7% margin and better than that obtained by the AEHM.…”

“…Then, averaging the stiffness over the volume or length of curved yarns under an iso-strain assumption is easy and straightforward. The iso-strain model, which provides an evaluation of all in-plane and out of plane elastic properties, proves relative effectiveness in modeling 2D and 3D braided composites [26,27,32] and 3D orthogonal woven composites [30]. Even to its simplicity, easy to use and applicability on all textiles architectures, the main disadvantage of the model remains in the assumption of only an iso-strain condition.…”

“…In other words, a full iso-strain model was used. Another 3D iso-strain model is presented by Shokrieh and Mazloomi [26]. The model was used to evaluate the stiffness of tri-axially braided composite.…”

“…The tensile properties were obtained based on ASTM standard D3039, while the in-plane shear properties were conducted according to ASTM standard D3518. The predicted effective elastic modulus and strength are listed in Table 5 and compared with the test results of Chen [26], and the numerical results using Quek model [29] and Shokrieh model [30]. The numbers in the parentheses illustrate the error percent between these models and experimental results.…”

Predicting the Failure Behavior of Textile Composite Laminates by Using a Multi-Scale Correlating Approach

This paper investigates the elastic and failure behavior of textile composite laminates by using an analytical multi-scale correlating approach. The analyses are performed under the four scale levels, i.e. the laminate scale, representative unit cell (RUC) scale, tow architecture scale and fiber/matrix scale levels. The correlation between different scales is derived based on the continuum mechanics and homogenization method from which the stress and strain fields in multiple scales can be obtained concurrently. Effective modulus and ultimate failure strengths of different textile composite (plain weave, twill weave and satin weave) laminates are predicted solely from the corresponding constituent properties, braid geometrical parameters and lay-up. The damage and failure mechanisms at the constituent level are also determined by the micromechanical failure criteria. All the predicted results compare favorably with available experimental data. Parametric studies are also performed to examine the effect of various mechanical and geometrical parameters on the resulting mechanical properties.

This study investigates the progressive damage behavior of three‐dimensional (3D) braided composites using a new analytical constitutive model. The composite microstructure is represented by yarns and an out‐of‐yarn matrix. The progressive damage behavior of yarns is modeled by a 3D Linde failure criterion, and that of the out‐of‐yarn matrix is modeled by an extended Drucker–Prager criterion. A bridging model is used to establish stress and strain relations between fiber and polymer matrix. Thus, the constitutive model of 3D braided composites is developed in the form of a system of analytical equations, and a numerical solution for the equation set is provided in this study. The elastic modulus, the strength constants, and the stress–strain behavior of 3D braided composites under tension and shear are computed by the model, and the results are consistent with the finite element results and the experimental data. The nonlinear damage behavior of 3D braided composites under unidirectional tension, compression, and shear is analyzed. The composite materials show repeated stiffness degradations during damage evolution because of successive failures of different compositions. Damage behavior depends significantly on the stress states and braiding structures of the composites. Braiding angle and fiber volume fraction mainly influence the mechanical properties of the composites, but barely affect the failure modes and tendencies of stress–strain curves. POLYM.
