A high fidelity multiscale approach for compression-after-impact behavior of 2D triaxially braided composites

In the current study, limited research has been conducted on modeling high -velocity impacts and their effect on residual strength. Though the simulation of compression after low -velocity impact are mature, these methods still have some numerical issues when utilized in the case of high -velocity impacts. Thus, a brand-new method suitable for continuous simulation of compression after high -velocity impact was implemented. As for the modeling techniques for 2DTBC, both the research on the model structure and constitutive behavior is still crude and imprecise. To address this situation, a high fidelity multiscale approach which contains a more accurate RUC model, a strain rate sensitive viscoelastic constitutive model and a novel subcell model was established. The HVI and CAI examples were conducted based on this framework and most results showed an error of less than 5% in both the simulation of impact resistance and residual performance. Also, the damage morphologies of simulated results demonstrated its capability and effectiveness.
