Multi-scale procedure for the mechanical analysis of composite laminate structures considering mixed boundary conditions
(2023-10)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a multi-scale procedure for the study of flat composite structures with discontinuities. In this procedure, the structure is solved using shell elements while the laminate performance and the structural ... -
Offshore electrical grid layout optimization for floating wind: a review
(2023-09)
Article
Open AccessElectrical grid layout optimization should consider the placements of turbines and substations and include effects such as wake losses, power losses in cables, availability of different cable types, reliability-based power ... -
Effective simulation of the mechanics of longitudinal tensile failure of unidirectional polymer composites
(Springer, 2017-12)
Article
Open AccessAn efficient computational model to simulate tensile failure of both hybrid and non-hybrid composite materials is proposed. This model is based on the spring element model, which is extended to a random 2D fibre packing. ... -

Maritime accidents in fishing craft in Spain. A Peltzman effect?
(Universidad de Cantabria, 2022-01-29)
Article
Open AccessFishing has always been a basic activity in different societies, being one of the most dangerous jobs. Facing the problem of the high number of accidents and casualties in the Spanish fishing sector, we present an observational ... -
An analytical model to predict stress fields around broken fibres and their effect on the longitudinal failure of hybrid composites
(2019-03)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents an analytical model to predict the stress redistribution around broken fibres in hybrid polymer composites. The model is used under the framework of a progressive failure approach to study the load ... -
A three-dimensional plastic-damage model for polymer composite materials
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA new 3D elastoplastic damage model is proposed to predict the plastic deformation and the progressive failure of unidirectional laminated composite materials at the meso-scale level. A non-associated flow rule is employed ... -
Novel approach combining two homogenization procedures for the analysis of nonwoven biocomposites
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2022-11-29)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyComposite materials with complex internal microstructures, such as the flax nonwoven bio-composite studied in this work, require advanced numerical models in order to predict their mechanical performance. Otherwise, the ... -
Detailed experimental validation and benchmarking of six models for longitudinal tensile failure of unidirectional composites
(2022-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyLongitudinal tensile failure of unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites remains difficult to predict accurately. The key underlying mechanism is the tensile failure of individual fibres. This paper objectively measured ... -
Multi-objective multi-scale optimization of composite structures, application to an aircraft overhead locker made with bio-composites
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-12-28)
Article
Open AccessThe use of composite materials has grown exponentially in transport structures due to their weight reduction advantages, added to their capability to adapt the material properties and internal micro-structure to the ...
