Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to a woven composite material multi-scale analysis method based on clustering reduction, and belongs to the technical field of composite material multi-scale damage evolution evaluation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Woven composite materials are widely used in aerospace and other fields due to their high-temperature resistance and excellent out-of-plane mechanical properties. Woven composite materials are essentially a material system with macro-meso-micro multi-scale structural characteristics. At the macro scale, woven composite materials can be prepared into complex woven structures; at the meso scale, woven composite materials are composed of resin matrix and fiber bundles with complex paths; at the micro scale, the fiber bundle is composed of resin matrix and fibers with random distribution characteristics. Therefore, the failure behavior of woven composite materials exhibits the characteristics of multi-scale and multi-mode coupling, and it is difficult to efficiently and parallelly predict the damage evolution behavior of woven composite materials at the macro-meso-micro scale.
[0003] In recent years, concurrent multi-scale calculation methods based on computational homogenization have undergone rapid development. The method couples the micro representative volume element (RVE) to the macro material point. In the calculation process, the macro material point strain is taken as the boundary condition of the micro RVE, and the boundary value problem of the micro RVE is solved to realize the stress update of the macro model. This method only needs to define the material parameters and constitutive model of the lowest scale, and has lower dependence on material parameters compared with traditional models. However, there are also challenges: for the two-scale or three-scale parallel damage evolution calculation of woven composite materials, the calculation dimension often reaches more than 1012, the calculation amount is huge, and there is a dimension disaster problem. In order to improve the efficiency of concurrent multi-scale calculation, it is necessary to introduce a data-driven algorithm to establish a concurrent multi-scale model to overcome the dimension disaster. SUMMARY

Damage variables are defined, and then the matrix damage constitutive equation is defined.
[0009] Step 2: Solve the RVE damage problem using the SCA method.
[0010] Step 21: Targeting the RVE region of the composite material By introducing a reference stiffness The governing equations of elasticity are transformed into solving the LS equations;

[0012] Step 23: Substitute the cluster-based strain and stress obtained in Step 22 into the LS equation obtained in Step 21 to obtain the cluster-based LS equation.
[0013] Step 24: Offline Stage of the SCA Method: Using the Strain Concentration Tensor Characterizing strain similarity, elements with similar strain responses in the RVE are grouped into a single cluster: using... The algorithm performs clustering reduction of RVE to obtain the interaction tensor;
[0014] Step 25: Online phase of the SCA method: The Newton-Raphson method is used to solve the cluster-based LS equations obtained in Step 23 to obtain cluster strain, stress, and damage;
[0015] Step 3: Establish FE-SCA 2 Concurrent three-scale model

[0050] Based on FE-SCA 2 The method for a concurrent multi-scale damage evolution model of woven composite materials comprises the following four key parts:

The algorithm implements cluster order reduction for Recurrent Virtual Vessels (RVEs). A micro-RVE with tens of thousands of units is reduced to a micro-RVE with hundreds of clusters, which can be written as:
[0067] (6)

[0083] 2. FE-SCA 2 Concurrent three-scale model
[0084] FE-SCA 2 The mathematical expression of the concurrent multi-scale model can be written as:

In the offline phase of this method, strain-based clustering is used to reduce the order of the RVE of the woven composite material and the RVE of the fiber bundle. In the online phase, the strain response of each macroscopic material point is calculated in parallel.

[0092] For each micro-incremental step First, the interaction tensor of the microstructure RVE needs to be calculated. The mesoscopic strain increments for each cluster are updated based on the mesoscopic SCA solver. For mesoscopic matrix clustering, matrix damage constitutive equations are used to calculate matrix damage variables. and tangent stiffness tensor If it is fiber bundle clustering, first calculate the microscopic strain increment. and The model is transformed from the meso-global coordinate system (Meso GCS) to the meso-local coordinate system (Meso LCS). Then, the meso-strain increments are... As far-field strain is applied to the micro-clustered unit cell, the micro-clustered LS equation is solved using a micro-SCA solver based on the damage constitutive equations of the fiber and matrix. When the first norm of the strain increment... Less than Newton's iteration tolerance The Newton iteration ends; the obtained micro-stress increments are then calculated. Homogenization yields the microscopic fiber bundle stress increment in the local coordinate system. The micro-stress increment of the fiber bundle and tangent stiffness tensor The system is transformed from a local mesoscopic coordinate system to a global coordinate system. Finally, the mesoscopic stress increment is calculated. Volume homogenization to update the stress increment at each macroscopic integration point Complete FE-SCA 2 Multi-scale computation. FE-SCA 2 The multi-scale method will be implemented based on the VUMAT subroutine of Abaqus.
[0093] 3. Constitutive Model of Microscopic Damage
[0094] In formula (12), it is necessary to define the damage constitutive models for the fiber and the matrix. The fiber is modeled as a transversely isotropic brittle material, and the fiber constitutive equation can be expressed as:

[0112] 4. Results and Discussion
[0113] (1) A multi-scale modeling method for three-dimensional woven composite materials, encompassing macro-fine-micro scales.
[0114] like Figure 2 As shown, the central 25mm region of the three-dimensional woven composite perforated plate is taken as the region of interest for modeling and finite element discretization is performed using a 1mm mesh size. The macroscopic three-dimensional woven composite perforated plate is discretized into 604 reduced integral C3D8R elements.
[0115] like Figure 3 As shown, at the microscale, the warp and weft yarns of the three-dimensional woven composite material extend vertically to form a multi-layered interwoven structure. The sewn warp yarns interweave with the weft yarns of adjacent layers in the thickness direction, thereby enhancing the out-of-plane mechanical properties of the three-dimensional woven composite material. Unlike the extension path of the warp yarns, the yarn path of the weft yarns exhibits slight undulation, while the sewn warp yarns exhibit obvious periodic undulation. Based on the TexGen software, a Python script was developed to reconstruct the microstructure of the three-dimensional woven composite material and extract the unit cells. Voxel meshes were divided in the Hypermesh software, and periodic boundary conditions were applied to the unit cells in the Abaqus software. Based on the offline clustering scheme proposed in (1.1), the voxel three-dimensional woven composite material unit cells were compressed into clustered three-dimensional woven composite material unit cells. At the microscale, a fiber bundle unit cell was established using a regular hexagonal fiber distribution configuration, with a length, width, and height ratio of 1:0.04:1.732, and a corresponding mesh density of 100:4:174 in the length, width, and height directions. By compressing voxel fiber bundle units into clustered fiber bundle units, a multi-scale modeling method for the macro-fine-micro scale of three-dimensional woven composite material structures was established.
[0116] (2) Convergence verification of clustering quantity
[0117] Before performing multi-scale calculations, it is necessary to conduct convergence verification on the number of clusters for fiber bundle unit cells and three-dimensional woven composite unit cells to determine the most suitable clustering scheme, thereby balancing computational efficiency and accuracy. Figure 4 andFigure 5 Stress-strain curves for fiber bundle unit cells and three-dimensional woven composite unit cells are presented respectively. Finite element results are compared as accurate results, and a 5% error band is used to assess the strength calculation error. Figure 4 The stress-strain results of fiber bundle unit cells under longitudinal tension were studied using the following clustering schemes: (fiber 16 cluster, matrix 16 cluster), (fiber 32 cluster, matrix 16 cluster), (fiber 64 cluster, matrix 16 cluster), (fiber 16 cluster, matrix 32 cluster), and (fiber 16 cluster, matrix 64 cluster). It can be seen that the linear segment of SCA (Structured Computational Analysis) agrees well with the finite element results, and the strength predicted by SCA is within the 5% strength error band. For three-dimensional woven composites, radial tension was investigated using the following clustering schemes: (fiber bundle 96 cluster, matrix 32 cluster), (fiber bundle 192 cluster, matrix 32 cluster), (fiber bundle 288 cluster, matrix 32 cluster), (fiber bundle 96 cluster, matrix 64 cluster), and (fiber bundle 96 cluster, matrix 96 cluster). Figure 5 The slope of the stress-strain curves from the SCA results was slightly lower than that from the finite element results. Meanwhile, the strength values predicted by the SCA results were all within the 5% error band. Therefore, fiber bundle unit cells with 16 fiber clusters and 16 matrix clusters, as well as three-dimensional woven composite unit cells with 96 fiber bundle clusters and 32 matrix clusters, were used for multi-scale analysis.
[0118] (3) Strain field verification of three-dimensional woven composite perforated plate
[0119] A uniformly distributed radial tensile displacement load is applied to both sides of the perforated plate, based on FE-SCA. 2 Radial tensile simulation calculations were performed using a concurrent multi-scale model. Two stages during the loading process, I and II, were selected for DIC experimental measurements and FE-SCA. 2 Strain field predicted by the method Compare the distributions, such as Figure 6 and 7 As shown in the figure. It can be seen that the results obtained from the DIC measurement are similar to those obtained from the FE-SCA measurement. 2 The strain fields predicted by the method agree well. An evaluation line is drawn on both sides of the hole to quantitatively compare the strain fields of the two methods. Result. For example. Figure 8 As shown, the DIC measurement yielded... Numerical values and FE-SCA 2 Method prediction The numerical trends are consistent, and the strain at the hole edge is... The value is higher than that far from the edge of the hole. Numerical value. For example... Figure 8 As shown in (a), the DIC measurement results and FE-SCA 2 Method predicts strain on the evaluation line The values exhibit a fairly high degree of consistency. Further loading to Phase II, as follows... Figure 8 (b) shows the strain measured by DIC. The value is slightly higher than FE-SCA 2 The strain values predicted by the method. Studies have shown that FE-SCA 2 The method achieves high accuracy in nonlinear calculations while alleviating the problem of low efficiency in three-scale calculations, and has high application value in the field of multi-scale calculations of composite material structures.
[0120] The FE-SCA developed in this invention 2 Concurrent multi-scale models are expected to be applied to the assessment of multi-scale damage evolution behavior of composite material structures in the future, replacing high-cost experimental methods and reducing the cost of assessing the damage performance of composite materials.

The multi-scale analysis method for woven composite materials based on clustering-based order reduction according to claim 1, characterized in that, The FE-SCA mentioned in step three 2 The numerical solution method for concurrent multi-scale models is as follows: In the offline stage, strain-based clustering is used to reduce the order of woven composite material RVE and fiber bundle RVE. In the online stage, the strain response of each macroscopic material point is calculated in parallel. For the macro incremental step N+1, load the macro strain increment. , in, and These are the far-field strain increments at step N+1 and step N, respectively. Macroscopic strain increment Apply to macroscopic integral point Solving the boundary value problem on the corresponding microstructure RVE; For each micro-incremental step First, the interaction tensor of the microstructure RVE needs to be calculated. ; The mesoscopic strain increments for each cluster are updated based on the mesoscopic SCA solver. For mesoscopic matrix clustering, matrix damage constitutive equations are used to calculate matrix damage variables. and tangent stiffness tensor If it is fiber bundle clustering, first calculate the microscopic strain increment. and Transform from the meso-global coordinate system (Meso GCS) to the meso-local coordinate system (MesoLCS); then, measure the meso-strain increments. As far-field strain is applied to the micro-clustered unit cell, the micro-clustered LS equation is solved using a micro-SCA solver based on the damage constitutive equations of the fiber and matrix. When the first norm of the strain increment... Less than Newton's iteration tolerance The Newton iteration ends; the obtained micro-stress increments are then calculated. Homogenization yields the microscopic fiber bundle stress increment in the local coordinate system. ; Incremental micro-stress of fiber bundles and tangent stiffness tensor Transform from the local coordinate system to the global coordinate system; finally, calculate the microstress increments. Volume homogenization to update the stress increment at each macroscopic integration point Complete FE-SCA 2 Multiscale computation; FE-SCA 2 The multi-scale method will be implemented based on the VUMAT subroutine of Abaqus.
