Experimental characterization and stochastic models for time-dependent rupture of thin-ply composite laminates
Thin-laminate composites with thicknesses below 200 mu m hold significant promise for future, larger, and lighter deployable structures. This paper presents a study of the time-dependent failure behavior of thin carbon-fiber laminates under bending, focusi ...
2024Numerical investigation of two-dimensional Mode-II delamination in composite laminates
Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Congzhe Wang
Existing standards for delamination tests on composite materials typically employ one-dimensional (1D) beam specimens. However, such specimens may not represent real delamination scenarios in composite structures, where cracks tend to propagate in two dime ...
London2024A model for the consolidation of hybrid textiles considering air entrapment, dissolution and diffusion
Véronique Michaud, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka
A new model is proposed for the consolidation of hybrid textiles, in which air entrapment and dissolution are considered. One of the key parameters is tow permeability, which is described by the analytical model of Gebart and validated at very high fibre v ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2023A hybrid Selective Laser Sintering based process for the additive manufacturing of architectured composites
Additive Manufacturing also commonly referred as 3D printing has been given a lot of interest lately. Market is growing exponentially and the aim for obtaining more complex and ready-to use parts is emerging. All the 3D printing processes consist in buildi ...
EPFL2023Probabilistic fatigue model for composites based on the statistical characteristics of the cycles to failure
Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Guangjian Xiang
A probabilistic model for estimating the fatigue life of composite laminates based on the mean value and standard deviation of the fatigue life is introduced here for predicting the distribution of fatigue life at any stress level for a constant stress rat ...
