Journal ArticleDOI
Geometrically nonlinear simulation of textile membrane structures based on orthotropic hyperelastic energy functions
TL;DR: This new orthotropic model enables realistic simulations of textile membranes in a fully geometrically nonlinear setting, which does not require simplifications based on linearized strains, which are currently used as standard in engineering practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new nonlinear polyconvex orthotropic material model for the robust simulation of technical fabrics in civil engineering applications at large strains – Validation with large-scale experiment/Ein neues polykonvexes orthotropes Materialmodell zur robusten Simulation von Textilmembranen im Bauingenieur- wesen unter Berücksichtigung großer Deformationen – Validierung anhand eines Großbauteilversuchs
Journal ArticleDOI
Saturation of the stress-strain behaviour of architectural fabrics
Jörg Uhlemann,Felix Surholt,André Westerhoff,Natalie Stranghöner,Mehran Motevalli,Daniel Balzani +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new method is proposed to determine load cycles correlated to the saturated state, which considers three different inspection characteristics: irreversible strain increment, total strain increment and intensity of nonlinearity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Architectural woven polyester fabrics: examination of possible classification of stiffness values in correlation with strength values
TL;DR: In this paper, the determination of stiffness parameters for architectural fabrics, mainly used as coated woven fabrics, is a field of intense discussion and designers and material producers are involved in a wide range of research.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Elastic Share of Inelastic Stress-Strain Paths of Woven Fabrics.
TL;DR: The mechanical saturation behavior of two types of PTFE-coated woven glass fiber fabrics is examined and compared and an extrapolation function is developed that facilitates an estimation of late cycle stiffness behavior based on measured early cycle behavior.
