Journal ArticleDOI
Ballistic Impact of Dry Woven Fabric Composites: A Review
Ala Tabiei,Gaurav Nilakantan +1 more
TL;DR: The ballistic impact performance of PBO systems is substantially superior to Kevlar 29 systems and marginally better than Kevlar KM2 systems 4 as mentioned in this paper, when gripped on all four edges, and almost 12 times that of aluminum fuselage skin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Woven fabric composite material model with material nonlinearity for nonlinear finite element simulation
Ala Tabiei,Y. Jiang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model for nonlinear finite element structural analysis of woven fabrics with nonlinear stress-strain relations was developed and implemented for structural analysis under static and dynamic loads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational micro-mechanical model of flexible woven fabric for finite element impact simulation
Ala Tabiei,Ivelin Ivanov +1 more
TL;DR: The developed model and its implementation is validated using an experimental ballistic test on Kevlar woven fabric and the presented validation shows good agreement between the simulation utilizing the present material model and the experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computationally Efficient Micromechanical Models for Woven Fabric Composite Elastic Moduli
R. Tanov,Ala Tabiei +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present two micromechanical models for the analysis of plain weave fabric composites, which utilize the representative volume cell approach to divide the representative unit volume of the woven lamina into subcells of homogeneous material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative study of predictive methods for woven fabric composite elastic properties
Ala Tabiei,Weitao Yi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared several methods used to predict the elastic properties of woven fabric composite materials and presented a new one, which is a simplified version of the method of cells for woven composites.
