    Abstract : With increasing emphasis and regulations on the environmental footprint in industries, the integration of reduced carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq) plastic materials is desirable. Fiber-reinforced plastic materials mechanical properties differ with varying fiber orientations. READ MORE

  2. 2. Anisotropic material modeling and impact simulation of a brush cutter casing made of a short fiber reinforced plastic

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Hållfasthetslära; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Oskar Norman; [2014]
    Keywords : anisotropic material modeling; short fiber reinforced plastics; impact simulation; Digimat; LS-DYNA;

    Abstract : A popular way to reduce weight in industrial products without compromising the strength or stiffness is to replace components made of metal by plastics that have been reinforced by glass fibers. When fibers are introduced in a plastic, the resulting composite usually becomes anisotropic, which makes it much more complex to work with in simulation software. READ MORE
