Computer-aided Analysis of Micromechanics and Damage of Composite Materials Based on Multiscale Homogenization Method

Abstract

ABSTRACTResults of finite element analysis of linked two and three scale levels tasks are presented. Fields of components of stress concentration tensor function for several models of unit cells of textile composite materials are presented too. Comparison of experimental and computational results of obtained effective properties was carried out and results of this research are introduced. The basis of this phenomenological approaches was made by Prof. N.S. Bahvalov and Prof. B.E. Pobedriya in 80's and finally this method was renovated by Prof. Yu.I. Dimitrienko at Bauman Moscow State Technical University at «Computational mathematics and mathematical physics» department. Computational procedures and program implementation was made using object-oriented design and C/C++ language by A.P. Sokolov. All computational results have been performed using new-developed distributed high-perfomance software system GCD. Multiscale homogenization method was applied for single macroscopic level of composite construction and several connected microscopic levels. The task of stress-strain determination of composite construction was stated automatically by means of automatically defined plan based on certain computational problems. Architecture of software system and finite-element subsystem were developed too. Several practically important tasks were solved and some of its results are attached.
