A new meso-scale modelling of static and fatigue damage in woven composite materials with finite element method

Abstract

Aim of this work is to evaluate the fatigue damage in textile composites on meso-scale level. Pre-damage properties, damage thresholds and damage propagation of unit cell (UC) are calculated and validated by experiments. Quasi-static damage algorithm is further used to model the cycles of the fatigue loading. Model output is the computed SN curve of textile composites
