Experimental and multiscale numerical analysis of elastic mechanical properties and failure in woven fabric E-glass/polyester composites
Abstrak
Woven laminate composites are extensively used in various industries, especially in yacht manufacturing, where a comprehensive understanding of their elastic mechanical properties, failure mechanisms, and the effects of layer stacking in E-glass/polyester composites is essential. A combined experimental and numerical approach was employed to investigate these aspects. Tensile and three-point bending tests were performed to assess the elastic mechanical properties of woven specimens, and optical microscopy was used to analyze fracture surfaces and identify failure mechanisms. For numerical analysis, a two-step homogenization method was applied. The numerical model was validated by comparing its results with experimental data.
