Multi-scale progressive failure simulation of 3D woven composites under uniaxial tension

Multiscale damage modelling of 3D woven composites under static and impact loads

“…In this work, Chamis model was used to determine the elastic constants of impregnated yarns, which is given by Eqn. (9).…”

“…In addition, most of these models were developed for thermoset composites and do not necessarily capture the unique failure mechanisms observed in thermoplastic composites, described in our previous work [5,6].

The authors' used maximum stress failure criteria and the nonlinear response was induced using pseudo-plastic law, i.e., by fitting the experimental shear response.…”

Investigation of the classification and properties of three-dimensional textile fabrics

“…The curved geometric unit mainly contains the curved fiber tows, and the proportion of fiber tows could be adjusted adaptively to suit the unit size. To analyze the properties of the curved fiber tows, the cross-sectional shape was supposed to be circular, 29 elliptical, 30,31 runway, 32 polygon, 33 and convex lens. 34 No matter what the shape changes, the cross-sectional area remains unchanged.…”

A new progressive damage model for predicting the tensile behavior of the three-dimensional woven carbon/carbon composites using micromechanics method

“…(2007) then developed an exponential damage evolution equations controlled by material fracture toughness for composite laminates based on the Crack Band Theory. Meanwhile, the progressive damage of the 3 D braided composites has been examined by using linear damage evolution equation (Ge et al., 2018; He et al., 2019; Liu et al., 2019) and exponential damage evolution equation (Ai et al., 2015; Liu et al., 2019; Zheng et al., 2020; Wang et al., 2015). Although much investigation has been conducted on the progressive damage modeling and numerical analysis of various 3 D woven composites, most of the damage models are established at yarn level, regard the yarns as homogenized material and failure criterion for unidirectional laminates are adopted as damage initiation criterion, which ignores the non-uniformity of the yarns that are composed of fibers and bonded matrix.…”
