Abstract
- A pressure-dependent elastoplastic damage constitutive model for polymer composites is established, in which the Implicit and Explicit numerical algorithm has been implemented in ABAQUS/Standard in terms of elasto-plastic phase with the aid of UMAT. The off-axis tension/compression tests for T800H/3633,T800S/3900-2B carbon/epoxy laminated composites, and quasi-isotropic compression tests for T800H/3633 laminated composites, have been simulated, in order to validate the efficiencies and accuracies of two algorithms. Additionally, the open-hole compression simulation is employed to analyze the progressive failure of T800H/3633 laminated composites. Compared with the Implicit and Explicit algorithm based the elasto-plastic model, the Explicit algorithm is recommended based on the computational efficiency on the premise of ensuring the numerical convergence, which may be extended to the large-scale engineering applications either statics or dynamics. Furthermore, the open-hole compression simulation of T800H/3633 composites shows the developed elasto-plastic damage model can predict well the stiffness and strength properties of the specimen. The failure mode and deformation of the open-hole specimen of T800H/3633 composites are also briefly discussed.
