Macro-scale modelling of the impact response of 3D woven composites for aerospace applications

The objective of this work is to develop a reliable simulation methodology that can be applied to predict the impact response of the components made with 3D textile composites in aero engine applications. Textile composites are excellent candidate materials for the design of aero engine fan containm...
