A modified micromechanics failure criterion (MMF3) based multi-scale analysis strategy was proposed in this article to analyze the failure behaviors of the plain-woven fabric composites. The finite-element (FE) representative unit cell (RUC) models of different scales were first established, and the RUC based stress transformation methods were developed. The micro-scale strengths of the constituents in the unidirectional laminate were achieved based on the tested macro-scale strengths. Under the micro-scale strength invariance hypothesis, the meso-scale strengths of the fiber tows from the plain-woven fabric composites were back-calculated first and were then validated and corrected with the assistance of tested strengths of the fabric laminates. With the micro-scale RUC and the calculated meso-scale strengths of the fiber tows, the micro-scale strengths of the constituents suitable for the plain-woven fabric composites were determined. The multi-scale analysis procedure for the plain-woven fabric composites was then established in providing a more direct failure observation at the constituent level. Open-hole compression specimens were tested according to the ASTM standard D6484, and the failure of the open-hole fabric laminate was simulated with the proposed multi-scale strategy. The numerical predictions were in good agreement with the experimental results, and the feasibility of the multi-scale strategy was validated.

Multi Scale Analysis

Fiber reinforced composite materials have been applied widely to many structures, because they have some advantages like easy handling, high specific strength, etc. The numerical method like finite element method has been applied to design and to evaluate the material properties and behavior as the development of Computer Aided Engineering. It is very difficult to calculate with accuracy not only in structural scale but also in detail material scale (for example, the order of fiber diameter) by the traditional FEM, becausecompositematerials like woven fabric composites have the geometrical complexityand the large difference between above mentioned scales. The development of multi-scale analysis method is one of the major topics in computational mechanics. Mesh superpositionis one of multi-scale analysis methods and is an effective method to solve the problems which have the large difference between the structure scale and the reinforcement scale. We have expanded the finite element mesh superposition method with 3 scales and have defined as M3 (Macro-Meso-Micro) method. In this paper, we have proposed a new approach method combined with M3 method and homogenized method to obtain the mechanical properties and to simulate the behavior of woven fabric composites. In addition, the elastic-plastic mechanics and the damage mechanics have been introduced into M3 method to investigate the effects of matrix-crack on the structural and material properties. From the numerical results, it is revealed that it is very useful for the evaluation of mechanical properties of composite materials.
