Model of Imperfect Interfaces in Composite Materials and Its Numerical Solution by FETI Method

Abstract

Analysis of material interfaces in composite materials is in the center of attention of many material engineers. The material interface influences significantly the overall behaviour of composite materials. While the perfect bond on material interface is modelled without larger difficulties, the imperfect bond between different components of composite materials still causes some obstacles. This contribution concentrates on application of the FETI method to description of the imperfect bond. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
