• What is a fibre‐reinforced plastic composite material?
Ideal material when high stiffness‐to‐weight and strength‐to‐weight ratios are required –For example:
Introduction
“A structural composite is a material system consisting of two or more phases on a macroscopic scale, whose mechanical performance and properties are designed to
be superior to those of the constituent materials acting independently.”(Daniel and Ishai, 2006)

• Use of composite materials is still expanding• Aerospace and Wind turbines largest users carbon fiber
• 43,500 tons used in 2012
• Aerospace 18%
• Wind turbines 23%
• Automotive use of carbon fiber to be >$6 billion by 2020, overtaking aerospace
Demand for Composites is Increasing

• Stress Life Analysis; Material properties from nCode database• Linear anisotropic results from standard FE solution
• Nonlinear results from FE solution and multi‐scale modeler
• Stress Life Analysis; Co‐processing with multi‐scale modeler• Every location requests an SN curve
• Curve created based on location using micro‐mechanics
• Strain Energy Density as damage parameter• FE uses anisotropic material model
• Fatigue calculation is isotropic
