Textile composite is one of the important materials used in industry and is made from textile
substrates embedded in the matrices of different materials (see ref. 1). However, due to its …

The models of the generalized method of cells and the recently developed high-fidelity
generalized method of cells are reviewed. These two methods are micromechanical theories …

Presenting a wealth of completely revised examples and new information, Introduction to
Composite Materials Design, Second Edition greatly improves on the bestselling first edition …

Offers information on the fundamental principles, processes, methods and procedures
related to fibre-reinforced composites. The book presents a comparative view, and provides …

The behaviour of woven-fabric laminated composite plates has been studied under
transverse central low-velocity point impact by using a modified Hertz law and a 3D transient …

In this study, a review of the progress made in analytical modeling of 2D and 3D textile
composites is presented. The review covers the most known analytical models developed in …

An analytical model called MESOTEX (MEchanical Simulation Of TEXtile) is proposed in this
paper with the objective of predicting 3D elastic and failure properties of several woven fibre …

Experimental research was conducted to investigate the compressive failure of orthogonal
2D woven composites. Damage initiation and the effect of weave architecture were studied …

Investigations on high strain rate behavior of composites under compressive loading are
presented. Compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) apparatus was used for the …

This contribution is an attempt to provide a thorough review of past and current research
work on fatigue and life prediction of fiber-reinforced composites. In order to summarize and …
