A combined XFEM and cohesive zone model for composite laminate microcracking and permeability
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-10-07)A novel computational methodology for predicting three-dimensional microcracking and permeability in composite laminates is presented, The methodology simulates microcrack initiation and propagation using the extended ... -
Damage and permeability in linerless composite cryogenic tanks
(2015-09-29)Carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) are one of the prospective material families being investigated for use in the fuel tanks of future reusable launch vehicles (RLVs). The extreme cryogenic thermo-mechanical loading ...
