Abstract: Advances in sensing and nondestructive evaluation methods have increased the interest in developing data-driven modeling and associated computational workflows for model-updating, in relation also to a variety of emerging ...

Abstract: A novel failure model updating methodology is presented in this paper for composite materials. The innovation in the approach presented is found in both the experimental and computational methods used. Specifically, a ...

Abstract: Abstract. Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) is a metal additive manufacturing process that uses a high-power laser to melt a predefined shape in a bed of metal powder, layer by layer. The size of the melted pool throughout ...

Abstract: The mechanical behavior of knitted textiles is simulated using finite element analysis (FEA). Given the strong coupling between geometrical and physical aspects that affect the behavior of this type of engineering materials, ...

Abstract: Fiber-reinforced metal laminate (FRML) composites are currently used as a structural material in the aerospace industry. A common FRML, glass layered aluminum reinforced epoxy (Glare), possesses a set of mechanical properties ...
