Compressive Behavior of Plain Weave Lamina

Abstract: An investigation into the micromechanics of a plain weave lamina subjected to compressive loading is presented. Three dimensional finite elements, embodying a realistic description of the spatial variation of the material properties and yarn geometry, are used to model a repetitive portion of the plain weave fabric. A detailed examination of the internal stresses and strains is carried out. Possible mechanisms causing intra-yarn and inter-yarn failure are described. It is shown that geometric nonlinear effects… Show more

“…The intricate geometry of the weave combined with geometrical and material irregularity poses a formidable problem in the modeling and analysis of woven composites. Kollegal and Sridharan examined the behavior of a plain weave lamina subjected to compression (15) . Chapman and Whitecomb studied progressive damage due to cool-down for plain-and stainweave carbon-carbon woven composite (16) .…”

“…At the same time, the undulated areas in this structure create matrix rich areas, and therefore, limit the tensile and compression performance of a laminate. [19,20] Park et al [21] filled theses undulations in a composite laminate based on PVC and a glass fabric with glass fibers in varying length and amount. For low fiber length and concentration of the additional fibers, they were able to demonstrate a slight increase in tensile strength, flexural strength, and inter-laminar shear strength.…”

“…Zako gave a brief review of the damage analysis for woven composite materials 11 : the modelling work in 12 has considered the geometrical non-linearity without the stiffness degradation, or the whole stiffness was reduced to zero (isotropic damage) 13 ; the anisotropic damage, correspondent to its damage mode, has been applied in [14][15][16][17][18] , but the reduced components and the reduced value are still questionable, as the knowledge was experimentally based. Zako and coworkers 11 proposed to use a theoretical anisotropic damage constitutive equation, the Murakami damage tensor 19 , to represent the damage mechanics, which was implemented on the Gaussian point scale of a meso-FE model.…”
