Abstract: This paper is concerned with elastic behavior of a triaxial braided composite by using a three-dimensional analytical model and mesoscale finite-element (FE) analysis, in conjunction with experimental observations. The ...

Abstract: To improve the prediction of the response of braided composite structures, a subcell approach is under development. This method has shown successes in predicting the moduli of braided composites. To examine its capability ...

Abstract: In this work, the modeling of triaxially braided composites was explored through a subcell approach using an improved semianalytical discretization scheme. The unit cell of the braided composite was divided into four unique ...

Abstract: The concept of sustainability grows in importance with innovation and adaption being fundamental to preserving environmental, economic, and social resources, in line with the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. ...
