Variational Asymptotic Method For Unit Cell Homogenization Of Thermomechanical Behavior Of Composite Materials, Chong Teng
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
To seek better material behaviors, the research of material properties has been massively carried out in both industrial and academic fields throughout the twentieth century. Composite materials are known for their abilities of combining constituent materials in or- der to fulfill the desirable overall material performance. One of the advantages of composite materials is the adjustment between stiffness and lightness of materials in order to meet the needs of various engineering designs. Even though the finite element analysis is mature, composites are heterogeneous in nature and can present difficulties at the structural level with the acceptable computational time. A way …
