Computational methods for evaluation of overall response of composite materials

Abstract eng:
The purpose of this contribution is to introduce a comparison of two Finite Element-based methods for computing the mechanical response to (thermo)mechanical loading of composites on micro-scale. Namely, the classical homogenization method based either on the Hashin-Shtrikman method or on the existence of a suitable periodic unit cell, and the reduced sub-structuring approach, where the number of condensed nodes varies are studied in this work.
