1. Method of equivalent co-ordinate systems (J. Whitcomb) can efficiently handle difficult non-orthogonal configurations of textile composites. 2. Reduction of the model size can be effectively done using symmetry transformations of the unit cell 3.

Boundary conditions: Periodic and not-that-periodic 4. Damage modelling: Paradoxes of stiffness degradation scheme and new damage mechanics approach

  • Stiffness degradation scheme: reasonable prediction of damage initiation
  • Very bad prediction of damage propagation in case of prevailing shear
  • Inconsistency of damage mechanics (distributed cracks) and actual brittle

cracking in anisotropic fibrous material

  • Damage parameters based on overall damage development in structural

elements of the unit cell (rather then in individual finite elements)

The paradigm of damage mechanics (D M) is not really applicable…

Damage mechanics:

  • degradation of microstructure occurs volume-wide and damage tensor is

representative of that volume wide degradation.

  • generally applicable when damage consists of a very large number of defects

that are more or less uniformly distributed throughout the considered volume.

  • riginally intended for modelling of damage accumulation in the material prior to

formation of detectable defects. Damage mechanics cannot be applied rigorously to modelling of damage evolution in textile composites

averaging in the cross-sections 1. Damage initiation is assessed using Puck criterion 2. Damage parameter d is assigned for each zone, rather then for individual elements 3. Stiffness of all the elements in the zone is reduced according to d.

2. Stiffness degradation scheme: Presence of shear leads to physically wrong predictions of the damage patterns, even if the stress-strain diagram is calculated correctly 3.
