Abstract

Composites Dream is a powerful software package of multi-scale finite element (FE) modelling and analysis for advanced composite materials. Composites Dream consists of WiseTex, MeshTex and SACOM which are originally developed by KU-Leuven and Osaka University respectively. In recent years, we are continuously developing some features to generate finite element model for several kinds of textile composites. In this paper, we present the recent developments in Composites Dream including meso FE-modelling of a cylindrical braided composites with inlay yarn, a bi-axial non-crimp fabric with stich modelled by beam element, a layered unidirectional non-crimp fabric etc. In addition, we also present a short fiber modelling capability associated arbitrary orientation tensor.
