T1 - The Application of a Reduced Volume Method for the Simulation of the Characterisation of a Carbon Fibre Pressure Vessel T2 - The 18th European Conference on Composite Materials N2 - The developed model has certain limitations of the element size to be used in the simulation to characterise the strength of composite materials. A reduced volume method is proposed in order to reduce the number of degree of freedom of the finite element simulation.This study has revealed certain configuration to be followed to speed up the computation time.

T1 - Modelling an Improved NOL Ring Test Using a Reduced Volume Method for the Characterisation of composite Cylinders T2 - The 22nd International Conference on Composite Materials N2 - The reduced volume method has found a particular zone to be used for evaluating the strength of unidirectional composite materials. To validate the method, modelling an experimental test where it has the same basic assumption of the model had been carried out. The result was favourable as the model can predict the average value from the experiment and also the time dependent effect.

T1 - Effect of the Time Dependent Loading of Type IV Cylinders Using a Multiscale Model T2 - 8th International Conference on Hydrogen Safety (ICHS) N2 - The Reduced Volume Method (RVM) has been used to evaluate the multiscale fibre break model developed at Mines ParisTech. It allows the model to be assigned only at certain part of the structures without necessarily compromising the final prediction. An attempt to model a simple unidirectional composite structure has also been carried out and gave a satisfying result. This paper deals with the application of the RVM to real scale type IV composite cylinders, where its stacking sequence was evaluated through micro-CT scans conducted with the collaboration of the University of Southampton. Two modelling geometries were evaluated and compared with the corresponding experimental results.

T1 - Effect of input properties on the predicted failure of a composite pressure vessel using a multiscale model T2 - FiBreMoD Conference N2 - It is pertinent to have a correct description of fibre strength described by the twp parameter Weibull distribution when evaluating a type Iv pressure vessel using the fibre break multiscale model developed at Mines ParisTech. Earlier studies have shown a positive comparison result when T600S fibre strength were used. This study has discovered what would be the effect on the predicted strength when T700S strength is used.

The reduced volume method was introduced to determine a smaller zone where we could characterise the strength based on the accumulation of fibre break, hence increasing the computation time T2 - The 8th International Conference on Structural Analysis of Advanced Materials CY - Tarbes, France DA - 28.08.2018 KW - Reduced volume method KW - Composite structures KW - Pressure vessels KW - Finite element method KW - Multiscale model PY - 2018 SP - 217508 AN - OPUS4-48928 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER -
