Abstract

Results from finite element simulation of the transverse compression of Polyamide 6.6 rovings made of 40 filaments are compared in this paper against experimental data. The finite element simulation, using a finite strain beam model to represent each filament of the roving, focuses on the modeling of contact–friction interactions between filaments. Experimental tests, consisting in crushing rovings between two rigid planes, varying the twist and the tensile force, are reproduced by simulation. Experimental and simulation results are compared with a good agreement. The simulation studies the influence of the roving twist, the applied tensile force, and the friction coefficient on the transverse compression behavior. The occurrence of plateaus in the transverse compression curve is highlighted and discussed.
