Abstract
The structure and mechanical properties of an injection-moulded short glass fibre (GF)-reinforced polymer composite were analysed through simulation methods. Fibre orientation, which evolves during the production of a thick-walled automotive part, was determined with an injection moulding simulation. Next, using the material model for the injected product, the force that resulted from the given deformation was determined with finite element software. To validate the simulation results, the examined products were manufactured with 30% reinforced GF, and then measurements were carried out. The validation of the fibre orientation tensor was achieved with optical microscope images, while the validation of the finite element, which analysed the flexural tests, was carried out through a comparison of flexural rigidity. The aim of the project was to verify the reliability of multi-stage finite element software. According to the results, in the case of a thick-walled GF-reinforced product, it was demonstrated that the integration of a different finite element software could be used reliably.
