How to model laminated FRP composite materials in Abaqus

[@faizanmohammadrashid441]

Very well explained. Eagerly waiting to watch the next video on damage modelling in composites.

[@rohitsubhashmali769]

Very good explanation Please make more videos on analysis of composite materials in Abaqus

[@engineering_software]

Thanks, You can find videos about creating various RVE of composite materials in our channels including 2D and 3D RVE of unidirectional composite and 2D random composite. If you mean video about macro modeling of composite we will prepare more videos in future. Currently a video about 3D modeling of damage in composite materials is in our plans.

very helpful video , thanks a lot sir , if there is any videos related how to extract results from ODB file by python code , I would really appreciate that

[@engineering_software]

Please watch these three videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKLKipqPp5hmsKM kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3SmpZuijcl7pZY kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXzGfnt7fphlm5o

Isn't unidirectional cfrp means that all plies have the same orientation..? I mean when we say 2 layers of unidirectional cfrp, isn't that mean that both layers are in the same orientation..?!

[@rohitsubhashmali769]

Could you make a video on how to change fiber volume ratio while creating composite plies.

[@engineering_software]

In macro modeling of plies we can change the properties of each layer which is affected by volume fraction. We can not change the volume fraction directly. To investigate the effect of volume fraction micro or meso scale modeling of composite materials is helpful. Please check the following play lists: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2bWe4OcaqqkfM0 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jHScp6iJnNWof5o kzbin.info/www/bejne/ip6Tfqp_qJekebs

what is the unit of shell edge load? Is it N/m. If we consider thickness can we apply shell edge load as pressure value (N/m2)

[@engineering_software]

In shell and plate theories, all the in plane loads are represented in (load per unit length N/m for force type loads or N.m/m for moment type loads). So the unit is N/m or N/mm for force type loads. However, there is not any shell edge load in this video.

Can you explain how to model woven fibre mats?

[@engineering_software]

We plan to publish a video about it.

Hi, how do you find the mechanical properties for these plies? I am wanting to do a similar thing for a carbon fibre polymer reinforced composite. Thanks!

[@engineering_software]

You should do one of the followings: Perform tensile and shear tests on various direction of a ply Use a micromechanical model and calculate these values based on constituent properties. Find a close material to your case

[@arpansingh2002]

from where you got the material properties?

Subject: Seeking FEA Software Recommendations for 3D Printed Composites Hi everyone, I'm researching FEA software tools for analyzing 3D printed composite materials, particularly those with anisotropic material simulation capabilities. I'd appreciate your insights on this subject. If you know any software that is suitable for the simulation of complex fibre routes I would be pleased to know more about it.
