Phase-field is a new exciting numerical technique that permits computationally cheap and effective simulation of challenging fracture problems, e.g. Read more
In this project, three-dimensional analyses of fracture in composite laminates will be conducted. The aim is to investigate if the XFEM is capable to reproduce fracture in composites with a sufficient degree of accurateness in terms of energy release rates and stress intensity factors. Read more
In analyses of failure in composite laminates, extended finite element analyses using Abaqus (or Ansys) might prove convenient for the prediction of transversal cracks on composite laminates subjected to compression. Read more
Composite structures are extraordinarily versatile. They have been used across mechanical, aerospace, civil engineering sectors in a range of applications (airframes, new car configurations, etc). Read more
