PLY DEFINITION

„ Typically a ply is a flat group of fibers imbedded in a


matrix.
„ The matrix is usually an isotropic material that holds
the fibers together.
„ In a ply called a tape, the fibers are unidirectional.
„ In a ply called a cloth, the fibers are woven at 0 and
90 degree directions.

NAS113, Chap. 2 , November 2003 C2-3


TAPE PLIES
„ Fiber:
‹ Unidirectional in tape
‹ Direction is the 1 axis of the
ply coordinate system
„ Matrix:
‹ Glue that holds fibers
together
‹ Matrix direction is the 2 axis
‹ 90 degrees to the 1 axis
„ Material properties are:
‹ 2D orthotropic material in
Patran
‹ MAT8 in Nastran

NAS113, Chap. 2 , November 2003 C2-4


MAT8 BULK DATA ENTRY
„ Defines the ply orthotropic properties.
‹ Elastic properties are E1, E2, NU12, G12, G1Z, G2Z.
‹ Allowables are Xt, Xc, Yt, Yc, S.
‹ Use STRN=1.0 if allowables are in units of strain.
‹ F12 is for the Tsai-Wu failure theorem.
‹ Thermal coefficients of expansion are A1 and A2,
‹ The MAT8 TREF reference temperature is not used since it is overridden by the
PCOMP TREF,
‹ Density is RHO,
‹ The MAT8 GE structural damping is not used since it is overridden by the PCOMP GE
„ The example below is typical for a graphite/epoxy tape.

COMPOSITE MATERIAL
„ Stack of plies
„ Each ply has a different
direction, material, and
thickness
„ Composite properties are
calculated in the material
coordinate system (Xm, Ym,
Zm)

„ Zm is the same as the element Z axis (Ze)


‹ Right hand rule of grid ordering, G1,G2,G3,G4
„ Xm is in the direction of the 0 degree ply
„ Positive angles are defined by right hand
rule around Zm

CQUAD4, 1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 4, 99
„ Material coordinate system
can be defined one of two
ways:
‹ MCID – (integer) - ID of a user
defined coordinate system who’s
X-axis is projected onto the
element to define the element’s
material coordinate system’s X-
axis. This along with the Z-axis of
the element coordinate system
defines the material coordinate
system.
‹ THETA – (real) - an angle
between the G1G2 vector of the
element and the X-axis of the
material coordinate system. The
positive sense of this angle is the
right hand rule direction around
the element’s Z-axis. CQUAD4, 1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 4, 25.0
