Abstract
This work aims to develop a procedure for optimizing the generic filament wound structures that are readily adaptable to existing systems. Compromise between the structural and technological requirements is achieved by selecting the appropriate choice of fiber orientation. To this end, a finite element code in conjunction with that for numerical simulation was developed to obtain fiber stability on the mandrel when winding. Once the design variables are defined, the winding process is optimized in terms of percentage of waste material, machine time and others.
