Solution
Avient leveraged Digimat to reverse-engineer material
data based on the microstructure, tensile test data,
and micro-mechanical modelling.
Long fibre reinforced
materials have an added degree of modelling complexity
due to the need to capture the effects of bundling, fibre
entanglement and weld lines.
