Stochastic analysis of composite materials

This thesis describes the development of stochastic analysis frameworks for use in engineering design and optimisation. The research focuses on fibre-reinforced composites, with the stochastic analyses of an existing analytical failure model for unidirectional composites and of a unit cell numerical...
