Analyse multiéchelle d'un composite textile = Multiscale analysis of a textile composite

National audience; On propose dans cette étude de comprendre le comportement mécanique d'un composite textile. Pour ce faire, l'étude se scinde en deux parties distinctes. Dans cet article, nous présentons la modélisation multiéchelle qui fait suite à une étude expérimentale. Son objectif est double : comprendre la nature du comportement macroscopique observé et expliquer l'origine des endommagements susceptibles d'apparaître. L'étude expérimentale du matériau fait l'objet d'un premier article.

Characterization of the dynamic behaviour of flax fibre reinforced composites using vibration measurements

International audience; Experimental and numerical methods to identify the linear viscoelastic properties of flax fibre reinforced epoxy (FFRE) composite are presented in this study. The method relies on the evolution of storage modulus and loss factor as observed through the frequency response. Free-free symmetrically guided beams were excited on the dynamic range of 10 Hz to 4 kHz with a swept sine excitation focused around their first modes. A fractional derivative Zener model has been identified to predict the complex moduli. A modified ply constitutive law has been then implemented in a classical laminates theory calculation (CLT) routine.

Analyse multiéchelle d'un composite textile

National audience; On propose dans cette étude d'expliquer le comportement mécanique d'un composite textile au travers d'un processus multiéchelle. Les propriétés mécaniques nécessaires à la réalisation des calculs ont été déterminées par une étude expérimentale préalable.

Bending effect on the risk for delamination at the reinforcement/matrix interface of 3D woven fabric composite using a shell-like RVE

This paper presents a computational homogenisation-based technique for flexural effects in textile reinforced composite planar shells. An homogenisation procedure is used for the in-plane and the out-of-plane behaviour of three-dimensional woven composite shells, taking the in-plane periodicity of the material into account while relaxing any periodicity tying in the thickness direction. Several types of damage (matrix or reinforcement cracking, delamination, …) can appear in a composite material. In this paper, material non-linear computations are used to assess the importance of bending on the risk for delamination at the reinforcement/matrix interface. The normal and tangential stresses a…
