Open data formats and scripting in integrated meso-level textile composite simulations

The geometrical model can be further processed by different models to produce such parameters as permeability of the textile reinforcement, stiffness matrix, thermal conductivity or dumping parameters of the consolidated composites etc. Moreover, the unit cell geometrical model can be transformed into a “general purpose” meso-level finite element (FE) model of the unit cell, allowing further in-depth simulation of the composite/reinforcement properties and behaviour.
