The increasing use of fibre reinforced polymer composite materials in a wide range of
applications increases the use of similar and dissimilar joints. Traditional joining methods …

Fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have been increasingly applied in engineering
structures especially for achieving high demands on structural performance, but they are …

Developing a high-fidelity stochastic multi-scale modelling framework that can capture the
structure–property relationship in a computationally efficient manner is of interest to the …

This paper presents a hierarchical hybrid micro-macro mechanical damage model aimed to
simulate progressive failure in fibre reinforced composite materials. The hybrid model works …

Uncertainties widely existing in composite structures make the reliability and sensitivity
analysis highly necessary. In this work, the approach based on adaptive Kriging is …

Woven composites possess multiple inherent uncertainty sources, which leads to the
stochasticity of macroscopic mechanical properties. In this work, a multiscale approach is …

Due to the hierarchical structure, fibre reinforced polymer composites exhibits randomness
at multiple scales, for example, the constituent material properties and the layer thickness …

This paper considers the impact of the random distribution of yarn properties on the
mechanical and failure behavior of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) structures and …

Injection-molded short-fiber-reinforced thermoplastics are widely used in today's industry.
Nevertheless, their mechanical behavior is difficult to model, especially because of strong …

In this paper, a Finite Element-based surrogate model is developed to efficiently estimate
stiffness properties of unidirectional composite laminas, while accounting for geometric and …
