Finite Element Modeling and Multivariate Optimization Over Fibre Orientation and Volume Fraction of Fibre Composite Parts Aimed at Minimizing Targeted Displacements

A software program was written that implements a finite element analysis (FEA) solution as the basis of an optimization function used for guiding the inverse design problem of aligning fibres, minimizing displacements in a fibre-reinforced polymer composite part in response to a given loading condi...
