Dear All, there are two channels for you to follow our research. 

1. We started a newsletter called Thoughts on Composites Modeling on LinkedIn. Please subscribe to it to get informed about our research and ideas we want to share with the community.

2. We moved our discussion forum to github at wenbinyugroup · Discussions · GitHub as it has more features which can serve you better.

Predictions of local/global stress/strain fields in composite structures

In this problem, we will try to show how to analyze the local-global fields in composite structures using SwiftComp-Abaqus-GUI. The figure below can summarize how to do the local global analysis.

Let the material properties a fiber (T300) property be: : E11=230 GPA, E22=15 GPA, v12=0.20, v23=0.0714, G12=15GPa, G7=3.928GPa. and matrix (3501-6 epoxy) be: E =4.2GP, ν=0.34 “Soden, P. D., Hinton M. J. and Kaddour, A. S., Lamina properties, lay-up configurations and loading conditions for a range of fibre reinforced composite laminates. Compos. Sci. Technol., 1998, 58(7), 1011”
