Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling damage growth in composites subjected to impact and compression after impact
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated single finite element model that enables analysis of impact damage and compression after impact (CAI) without major simplifications and idealizations of damage in composites is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the relationship between failure mechanism and compression after impact (CAI) strength in composites
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between different failure mechanisms and compression after impact (CAI) strength through an advanced finite element analysis was explored, and the effect of change in ply layup sequence, sub-laminate scaling and ply blocking were investigated and a link between failure and CAI strength was established.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the improved ballistic performance of bio-inspired composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the underlying mechanism leading to improved impact resistance and energy absorption in bio-inspired composite is investigated through numerical modeling, which is inspired from the endocuticle of stomatopods, composed of mineralized helicoidal arrangement of fiber layers capable of withstanding high velocity impact.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tensile and Statistical Analysis of Sisal Fibers for Natural Fiber Composite Manufacture
TL;DR: In this paper, the tensile properties of sisal fibers were determined and the relationship between tensile strength, young modulus, failure to strain and gage length was studied.
Modelling Failure Mechanisms in Composites Subjected to Impact and Post-impact compression
M.R. Abir,T.E. Tay,H.P. Lee +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated finite element model was presented to predict CAI strength without simplifying or idealizing the damage due to the impact event, and it was found that failure during post-impact compression is governed by local buckling, which triggers damage growth.
