Multiscale damage modelling of 3D woven composites under static and impact loads

A multiscale progressive damage modelling methodology for 3-dimensional (3D) woven composites is presented. The proposed methodology is generic and can be implemented in most finite element software to create a digital twin for simulation of damage response. It uses 3D solid element (reduced integra...
