The impact of mesoscale textile architecture on the structural damping in composite structures (2020)
Journal Article
Thierry, V., & Chronopoulos, D. (2020). The impact of mesoscale textile architecture on the structural damping in composite structures. Composite Structures, 249, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compstruct.2020.112475

In this article, a method allowing for prediction of the effective structural damping given the mesoscale architecture of a composite is presented. The method enables a fast and accurate calculation of the loss factor as a function of the direction o...

Experimental and numerical determination of the wave dispersion characteristics of complex 3D woven composites (2020)
Journal Article
Thierry, V., Mesnil, O., & Chronopoulos, D. (2020). Experimental and numerical determination of the wave dispersion characteristics of complex 3D woven composites. Ultrasonics, 103, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ultras.2020.106068

In this article, an attempt is made towards the experimental validation of a numerical method allowing vibro-acoustic and ultrasonic wave propagation analysis of complex woven composites. For this validation, three different woven architectures were... Read More about Experimental and numerical determination of the wave dispersion characteristics of complex 3D woven composites.
