Modeling the structural element of flexible woven composites under static tension using the method of finite element in ansys

The article gives the example of finite-element modeling of the structural element is a flexible woven composites. The reinforcing cloth is a plain weave of threads of assembled harness. Threads are represented by elastic material. The matrix of the material is a soft polymer with the possibility of irreversible deformations. Taken into account the possibility of the occurrence of damage in the structure of the material under high loads. Built detailed diagram of deformation under uniaxial tension. The accuracy of the model is confirmed by in situ experiments.
