Predicting the coefficient of thermal expansion for textile composites based on a unit cell approach
(2013)
Conference Proceeding
The study focuses on unit cell FE modelling to predict coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) for sheared fabric laminates. Shear, as a dominant deformation mode in textile composites forming, introduces high degrees of anisotropy in both elasticit...
