Caldichoury (LSTC)Ĭontinuous induction welding is an advanced material processing method with a very high potential of providing a flexible, fast and energy efficient means of joining together thermoplastic composites to themselves and metals and alloys. Hausmann (Institut für Verbundwerkstoffe), P. A Finite Element Investigation Into the Continuous Induction Welding of Dissimilar Material Joints The state-of-the-art modelling approach is to use the FORM=14 option which allows for specifying uniaxial stress-strain curves in the fabric’s warp and weft directions. Over the years, the model has been subjected to continuous robustness improvements and incorporation of important application features and today it comes in several forms and with an extensive set of parameters. Material 34 (MAT_FABRIC) in LS-DYNA is the material model of choice for fabrics when simulating airbag deployment in the automotive industry.
