Hi
I am trying to model particulate composites and simulate their stress-strain response. The problem that I am facing is that the inclusions (stiffer than the matrix) are only acting as points of stress concentration. Consequently their is no strengthening and hence no apparent increase in load carrying capacity of the composite. Any help/suggestioin in this regard would be higly appreciated.

How do I recover interlaminar stress from shell elements for composites?
How do I recover interlaminar stress 13, 23, xz, yz, from shell elements for laminated composites?
what element should I use?
Postdoctoral Position Available at University of Western Ontario, Canada
Position is available for a postdoctoral fellow to carry out an industry sponsored project on carbon fiber composite modeling. The contract is initiated for one year, with possible extension if work progresses satisfactorily. The research will focus on
(1) micromechanics modeling of elastic and viscoplastic behavior of injection molded carbon fiber composites;
(2) homogenization techniques and constitutive model development for vibration, strength and impact simulations of carbon fiber composites.
Extract natural frequencies in abaqus
Hi all,
I am new in the blog, so I would like to appologies if this post is already published.
I am doing a research in vibracion-based health monitoring based in CFRP beams. As a part of my research, I am modeling a composite beam in abaqus and apply transient analysis on it. Before I would like to validate my model with a very simple a easy model for this reason I have elaborated this procedure:
call for abstracts - Composite Armor and Ballistic Impact/Failure Dynamics
Dear colleagues,
