Carbon/Epoxy Woven Composite Experimental and Numerical Simulation to Predict Tensile Performance

Experimental, Franc2d, and DDM simulation to determine the anisotropic tensile strength of brittle material

In this paper, a compression-to-tensile load converter device is developed to determine the anisotropic tensile strength of brittle material. A cubic sample with an internal pore was used as the test specimen, and a series of finite element analysis and DDM simulations were performed thereafter to analyse the effect of pore dimensions on the stress concentration, as well as to render a suitable...

Tensile behavior simulation of woven fabric with different weave pattern based on finite element method

Grab and Strip Tensile Strengths for Woven Fabrics: An Experimental Verification

In the present study we have attempted to verify a theoretical model of grab versus strip strengths of fabrics [Textile Research Journal, 2003, 73(2), 165–171] through experimental investigation. Five different fabrics were included in this study, and three related parameters were investigated including the modulus ratio of the specimen (shear versus tensile moduli), the specimen gauge length a...

Numerical simulation of in-cylinder tumble flow field measurements and comparison to experimental results

This paper presents a comparison between measured and predicted results of the in-cylinder tumble flow and the flow coefficient generated by a port-valve-liner assembly on a steady-flow test bench. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods were employed to gain further insight into characteristics of an engine. The purpose was to advance understanding of the stationary turbulenc...

finite element simulation and experimental study on energy absorption of 3d woven glass fiber composite sandwich panels

abstract: in this paper, the results of experimental and numerical simulation of low velocity impact process have been carried out to investigate energy absorption of composite sandwich panels with 3d woven fabrics of glass fibers and epoxy resin. for this purpose, diagrams of force-displacement of the quasi-static and quasi-dynamic impact tests were studied. for the finite element simulation, ...
