Researchers Develop Computational Method to Make CFRPs Cost-effective and Accessible

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) are lightweight—yet strong and durable—materials with potential applications in aerospace and transportation. However, time-consuming experiments are required during their design phase, which is expensive. In a recent study, researchers have developed a quasi-3D extend finite element method, a new and computationally efficient approach to simulate damage propagation in CFRP laminates.…
