Digimat for long fibre reinforced materials Advanced simulation captures part performance for fibre reinforced thermoplastics Comparing the results of isotropic material data to anisotropic material data Case study https://hexagon.com/ Figure 2: Digimat material model workflow when coupled with an FEA solver Manufacturing Intelligence hexagonmi.com2 Solution Avient leveraged Digimat to reverse-engineer material data based on the microstructure, tensile test data, and micro-mechanical modelling. Figure 1: Tensile test data as a function of the fibre orientation 0° (orange), 45° (green), 90° (blue) https://www.hexagonmi.com Figure 4: Failure location in the flexural test for the isotropic modelling Figure 6: Failure location in the tensile test for the isotropic modelling approach (left), Digimat anisotropic modelling approach (middle) and reality (right) Figure 3: Flexural test results with the isotropic modelling approach (orange) and Digimat anisotropic modelling approach (green) Figure 5: Tensile test results with the isotropic modelling approach (orange) and Digimat anisotropic modelling approach (green) Figure 5 shows the tensile test results with, again, a convincing advantage for the Digimat anisotropic modelling approach against the isotropic modelling approach. https://www.hexagonmi.com https://hexagon.com https://twitter.com/HexagonAB https://hexagon.com/
