Composite materials are substances formed by combining two or more different materials into one.
Their greatest advantage is that these new materials have the characteristics and properties of their constituent parts. As a result, composite materials are widely used in many industrial fields today, particularly since the emergence of carbon and glass fibers with their superior properties.
However, currently, there are substantially less simulation results available than for metals.
This technical article discusses some of the problems of using finite element method (FEM) simulation software for composite material analysis and introduces new solutions from CYBERNET with Ansys Software for solving these problems.
