Development and verification of a resin film infusion/resin transfer molding simulation model for fabrication of advanced textile composites
The objective of this study was to develop a two-dimensional computer model for the simulation of the resin transfer molding/resin film infusion processing of advanced composite materials. This computer simulation model is designed to provide aircraft structure and tool designers with a method of …

Computational Modeling and Impact Analysis of Textile Composite Structutres
… and the dynamic behaviors and failures of 2-D textile composite as well as 3-D orthogonal woven composite structures weakened by cracks and subjected to static-, impact- and ballistic-type loads. As more complicated modeling about textile composite structures is introduced, some of …

High-resolution numerical models for damage assessment in composite materials
… in both unidirectional and two-dimensional woven textile composites.<br/><br/>It is well established that a methodology which can be considered reliable in predicting the structural response of heterogeneous materials depends on the scale at which damage is explicitly modelled, making low-scale …

An infiltration/cure model for manufacture of fabric composites by the resin infusion process
… developed to simulate fabrication of advanced textile composites by the resin film infusion process. The simulation model relates the applied temperature and pressure processing cycles, along with the experimentally measured compaction and permeability characteristics of the fabric preforms, to …

Multiscale modelling of woven and knitted fabric membranes
… stretchability and drapeability properties of textiles and textile composites. Since the inception of computerised numerical control for three-dimensional textile-manufacturing machines, technical textiles paved their way to numerous applications, certainly not limited to; aerospace, …

Characterization of damage mechanisms and behavior in two-dimensionally braided composites subjected to static and fatigue loading
In the present research project, four braided composite architectures consisting of graphite fibers in an epoxy matrix were tested under static and fatigue loading conditions to determine damage mechanism types and progressions. The braided architectures consisted of straight axial fiber bundles, …
