  Jun 2013 - Dec 2014

  Research Associate

  Low velocity impact damage failures in Composite Laminates1. Studied the response of carbon/epoxy laminated plate subjected to low velocity impact loading. 2. 3D finite element model of composite laminate is generated. 3. Impact simulation was performed using finite element software LS-DYNA with 3-D (Hex) solid elements. 4. Force and deformation response in impact damage is estimated with varying mesh sizes. 5. Cohesive Elements modelling technique utilized for delamination study. Show less
