CFCC Composites Code - Property Prediction and Stress Analysis

Composite Property Prediction

A variety of solution techniques are embedded within the code in order to implement prediction of composite properties. These techniques may be divided into two main categories - lamination theory for composite laminates and general elasticity solutions for N-D composites. Once the code has predicted the input composite's properties, the user may apply thermo-mechanical loads and perform a stress/initial strength analysis.
