Toward Realistic Simulation of Transient Events Within an Efficient Workflow Using Implicit and Explicit Solvers: Application to Laminated Composite Materials
摘要
This paper is dedicated to a low intrusive numerical strategy to alternatively use implicit and explicit solvers in structural mechanics. This communication aims at presenting this strategy and demonstrate its ability to introduce a pre-stress in structures prior to a transient dynamic loading. That is particularly the case of residual thermal stresses in laminated composites materials. Despite a wide literature about the subject, these initial stresses have to our knowledge, never been accounted for in explicit simulations.
