1.3.5. Workflow for Woven Composites

For woven composites, two Material Designer component systems are required. The second system models the mesoscopic level (yarns and matrix), while the first system models the microstructure of the yarn (fibers and matrix). The yarn is locally treated as a UD composite and its homogenized material data is used as an input to the second system.
