• The attractiveness of composites lies in their mechanical properties; such as weight, strength, stiffness, corrosion resistance, fatigue life. That is why the analysis of composite structures is imperative for the industries. The main advantage of composites is their flexibility in design. Mechanical properties of the laminate can be altered simply by changing the stacking sequence, fibre lay-up and thickness of each ply which leads to

Progressive Failure Analysis

Ed Dickerson

Progressive Failure Analysis

• The progressive failure analysis is a method developed for predicting the nonlinear response and failure of laminated composite structures from initial loading to final failure.

• Failure is indicated by the failure criteria used.

• When failure occurs, the FEM element stiffness is degraded.

• The material will not heal; the damaged elements keep the degraded properties after unloading.

Progressive Failure Analysis

properties after unloading.

• Investigations of effect of overloads on composite structures• Available for existing criteria: Maximum Strain/Stress, Hill, Tsai-Wu • Available for NEW criteria: Puck, Hashin, Hashin-Tape, Hashin-Fabric

These failure theory are able to predict the failure load and also the mode of failure such as fiber failure and/or matrix failure.

Progressive failure

• How does failure affect the different material moduli ?

• Assume – 1-direction is fiber direction– 2-direction is matrix direction in the plane of the ply– 3-direction is through the ply thickness

• Fiber failure– Reduce E1 and E3

• Matrix failure– Reduce E2, G12, G23 and G31

Fracture Mechanics and Delamination

Ed Dickerson

• Delamination is one of the main failure mechanisms in laminated composites• Possible reasons for delamination are:• Manufacturing defects and stress• Gradients near geometric discontinuities (like stiffener terminations and

bolted joints)• Delamination may result in local failure or even a significant loss of the

Delamination Introduction

• Delamination may result in local failure or even a significant loss of the structural integrity

• Three different approach available:

– VCCT– CZM– Breaking glued contact

(Virtual Crack Closure Tecnique)

• The VCCT is the fracture mechanics approach for studying delamination and crack initiation and growth.

• It is used for calculating the energy release rate of single or multiple cracks.

Fracture Mechanics with VCCT

• In linear fracture mechanics, a crack starts to grow when– Total G > Gc

– G is the energy release rate– Gc is the fracture toughness

(Virtual Crack Closure Tecnique)Fracture Mechanics with VCCT

– Gc is the fracture toughness

• VCCT is a methods used to compute the energy release rate.• Energy release rate:

G = Fu/2a

• The so-called interface elements can be used to simulate the onset and progress of delamination. The constitutive behavior of these elements is expressed in terms of tractions versus relative displacements between the top and bottom edge/surface of the elements.

• Considering a 3-D interface element, the relative displacement components with respect to the local element system:

• The interface elements can be modeled between 2D and 3D structural finite elements:

• The effective traction is introduced as a function of the effective opening displacement, and is characterized by an initial reversible response followed by an irreversible response as soon as a critical vc effective opening displacement has been reached. Three standard functions are

Composites Beam

Composite Beam Using the Variational AsymptoticMethod (VAM)

• Arbitrary beam cross section (ABCS) capability available in MD Nastran, and composite support for an arbitrary beam cross section has been implemented. The variational asymptotic method (VAM) is used to compute the beam properties of an arbitrary cross section.

• The composite beam using VAM provides an alternative to conventional 3-D/2D modeling technique, and permits the use of beam element to model composite beams. The layup of composite beam plies is described model composite beams. The layup of composite beam plies is described on the PCOMP/PCOMPG Bulk Data entries. In addition, the cross section of the composite beam can be expressed conveniently with the CP/OP options of the PBMSECT Bulk Data entry

• Examples of Composites Beam Bulk Data Entry:

Composite Beam Using the Variational AsymptoticMethod (VAM)

• PBMSECT,32 is a box beam made of composite material. All segments have a common CORE=204 with four plies. Segments from POINTs 2 through 5 have one ply on top, layer=(210,101), and one ply at the bottom, L(2)=(210,103).

• Limitations

• Beam must be straight when used as a composite beam (not curved).

• SOL 200 does not yet support the composite beam.
