  1. MSC.Patran/Nastran-SwiftComp GUI

    01 Apr 2019

    A graphical user interface (GUI) has been developed to integrate SwiftComp into MSC.Patran/Nastran for constitutive modeling and providing the automated conversion of the MSG plate and beam stiffness matrix into MSC.Nastran shell and beam element properties and materials. In order to reduce...

  2. Multiscale Modeling of Damage Mechanics of Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites From Micro- to Macroscale: The (Virtual) Reality and Challenges Ahead

    13 May 2022 | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    Multi-scale modelling of composites is a very active topic in composites science. This is illustrated by the numerous sessions in the recent European and International Conferences on Composite Materials, but also by the fast developments in multi-scale modelling software tools, developed by large...

  3. Nanohub and the HUBzero Platform

    16 Aug 2014 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): SME Project

    Dr. Michael McLennan describes the nanoHUB and HUBzero platform at the May 2013 Composites Design and Manufacturing HUB workshop.

  4. Novel Powder Epoxy Composites for Thick-Section Structures

    25 Jan 2021 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    This seminar discusses the ongoing work at The University of Edinburgh on the processing, design and testing of thicksection composites for industrial structures such as large wind and tidal turbine blades, via powder epoxy resin systems. Thick-section composite parts are difficult to manufacture...

  10. Recent Developments in Computational Approaches to Model Laminated Composite Shells and Damage and Fracture in Solids

    16 Feb 2021 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    In this lecture, two different topics of considerable interest to composite materials and structural mechanics communities are discussed. The first topic deals with the development of locking-free shell finite elements with thickness stretch for the nonlinear analysis of isotropic and laminated...

  11. Rheology of Carbon Fiber Thermoplastic Polymer Composites

    26 Apr 2021 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    The rheology of fiber–reinforced thermoplastic composites will be presented with specific focus on several topics studied over the past three decades. Interest in the elongational viscosity of collimated, discontinuous fiber systems was initiated by the introduction of impregnated,...

  14. Structural Self-sensing Based on Measuring the Resistance, Capacitance or Inductance of the Structural <aterial, Without Sensor Incorporation

    06 Nov 2023 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    Structural self-sensing refers to a structural material sensing itself without sensor incorporation. Compared to sensor incorporation, advantages include low cost, high durability, large sensing volume and the mechanical properties being not degraded. The self-sensing ability makes the structural...

  15. Structure Genome: Fill the Gap between Materials Genome and Structural Analysis

    29 Nov 2014 | Publications

    A new concept, Structure Genome (SG), is proposed to fill the gap between materials genome and structural analysis. SG acts as the basic building block of the structure connecting materials to structures and the mechanics of SG governs the necessary information to link materials genome and...

  16. Sustainable Manufacturing of Composite Materials

    21 May 2021 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    The growing use of composite materials in aerospace, transportation, recreational products and renewable energy production manufacturing has created a critical need for low-cost sustainable manufacturing methods. The current methods of consolidation and cure are not compatible with the projected...

  19. The Challenges of Determining the Strength of Composites

    24 Nov 2020 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Johnathan Goodsell

    Why are there such large differences in reported strengths of composites? Some of the reasons are the definition of strength, material variability, poor test methods, and subtle variations in carrying out the tests. But there are other important factors that affect strength that are not...
