Abstract
The analysis of textile composites is complicated by the complex micro-structure. It is not practical to account for this microstructure directly using traditional finite elements. A new type of finite element was developed to efficiently account for microstructure within a single element. These new elements, which are referred to herein as macro elements, performed well in initial tests.
