Simulation of high-speed impact into ceramic composite systems using cohesive-law fracture model

Finite element simulation of ceramic composite under high-speed impact

Papers abstract: A numerical study for the analysis of oblique metal/ceramic/metal three-layer composite systems against a long-rod has been performed. The study was done using a three-dimensional dynamic program NET3D, which uses the finite element Lagrangian method with explicit time integration. To model the discrete nature for fracture and damage of brittle materials, we implemented […]

Simulation Pull-Out Test Modeling of GFRP bars bonded with epoxy inside timber

pull-out test of a hooked GFRP bar bonded with epoxy in timber wood

Introduction to Simulation Pull-Out Test Modeling of GFRP Bars in Timber with Epoxy The Pull-Out Test is a widely used experimental method to assess the bond behavior between reinforcement materials and a substrate, such as glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars embedded in timber using epoxy adhesives. This method provides valuable insights into the load transfer […]

Analysis of adhesively bonded cross-laminated timber-concrete composite under close blast explosion test

blast analysis of CLT-concrete composite

The increasing demand for sustainable and resilient building materials has driven the development of hybrid structural systems that combine the advantages of different materials. One such system is the cross-laminated timber–concrete (CLT–concrete) composite, which leverages the high stiffness and compressive strength of concrete with the lightweight, renewable, and ductile characteristics of cross-laminated timber (CLT). These […]
