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.

CASE STUDY
This work presents the CFD model of an axial piston pump and compares it to a validated 0D model. The main objective of this study was to analyze the flow field inside the pump, focusing on the aspects that involved the main inner volumes, such as the filling and emptying dynamics in the piston chambers and the flow field inside the ducts.
