A detailed composite textile meso-level finite element failure modelling technique

The specific contribution of this thesis is to present a detailed FE modelling approach to simulate the stiffness behaviour 3D fibre reinforced composites and facilitate progression to failure using commercially available software and existing computational capabilities. The composite constituents i...
