  1. 1. Failure prediction of orthotropic Non-Crimp Fabric reinforced composite materials

    Author : Henrik Molker; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Orthotropic; Non crimp-fabric; Failure initiation; Design methodology; Carbon fibre composite;

    Abstract : The automotive industry needs to reduce the energy consumption to decrease the impact on the environment. One part of this is to reduce the weight of cars, thereby reducing the fuel consumption. A promising way to be successful with this is to introduce carbon fibre composites in the structural parts.

  2. 2. Dynamic Equations for Spherical, Orthotropic and Piezoelectric Cylindrical Shells Using the Power Series Method

    Author : Reza Okhovat; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shell equations; cylindrical shell; eigenfrequency.; piezoelectricity; Shells; Hamilton’s principle; surface differential operators; recursion relations; spherical shell; orthotropic; dynamics;

    Abstract : Shells are commonly used in many branches of engineering, and have therefore beeninvestigated for a number of different types of shells. A shell is considered to be curved aplate with small thickness compared both to the other geometrical dimensions as well asto the wavelengths of importance. READ MORE

  3. 3. Hygro-Elastic Deformation of High Pressure Laminates. A Macroscopic Analysis. Theoretical Modelling and Measurements

    Author : Bijan Adl-Zarrabi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; numerical simulation; expansion; elastic deformation; moisture transport; orthotropic; high pressure laminate;

    Abstract : Deformation due to environmental changes in moisture arises in many engineering problems of practical interest. The purpose of this work is to develop a theoretical model for the determination of moisture induced deformations in thin plates made of High Pressure Laminates. READ MORE

  4. 4. Variation Simulation Customized for Composites by Including FEM Simulations of Orthotropic Lamina

    Author : Cornelia Jareteg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geometry assurance; FEM; Composites; Shell model; Process variation; Method of Influence Coefficients; Monte Carlo; Orthotropic material; Manufacturing; Tolerance analysis; Variation simulation; Spring-in; Tolerance analysis;

    Abstract : The use of composite materials is increasing in many fields of production. Composite manufacturing, as well as other fields of production, suffers from uncertainties resulting in products that deviate from the specification. Geometry assurance is a common procedure used to keep the variations in product assemblies under control. READ MORE
