DOI: 10.1016/j.compositesb.2018.06.012
Abstract: Abstract An experimentally validated multiscale computational model for predicting the progressive damage and failure analysis (PDA) of 3D woven textile composites (3DWTCs), is presented. The 3DWTCs are made through a 3D textile weaving process and… read more here.
