ST7-1.40.50.2 Modelling a Composite Bracket
Thick curved composite parts prove challenging to design, analyse and manufacture due to the orthotropic properties of the constituent plies. A 10 mm thick three-tab CFRP bracket is shown below. At left, the thick CAD solid part is shown. At middle, the equivalent mid-surface geometry is shown. This is used to generate a surface automesh of plate elements (shown at right) which has a laminate property definition applied. Approximate model size is 100 mm.
