Enhanced direct stiffness method for finite element analysis of textile composites
John D. Whitcomb,Kyeongsik Woo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple substructuring technique for formulating these special elements is described, which accounts for the microstructure within a single element within a textile composites, where the microstructural scale of a material is of the same order of magnitude as the structural scale of the component.

Thermal uncertainty quantification in frequency responses of laminated composite plates
TL;DR: In this article, a generalized high dimensional model representation (GHDMR) is introduced to ensure the hierarchical orthogonality of high dimensional models component functions. But the model is not suitable for modeling the thermal, ply-level and material uncertainty propagation in frequency responses of laminated composite plates.

FEA evaluation of the Al4C3 formation effect on the Young’s modulus of carbon nanotube reinforced aluminum matrix composites
Ismeli Alfonso,O. Navarro,Joel Vargas,Alberto Beltrán,Claudio Aguilar,Gonzalo Gonzalez,Ignacio A. Figueroa +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect on Young's modulus of Al4C3 formation in the carbon nanotube (CNT)-Al interface, for Al matrix composites, was analyzed using Finite Elements Analysis (FEA) models, incorporating different CNT volume fractions and interfacial Al 4C3 layers of various thicknesses.
