CADEC calculates a wide variety of material and structural properties
Sample plot of E2 vs. Fiber volume fraction
CADEC can compute the Stiffness, Compliance, Strain and Stress transformation
All the calculations can be exported to Microsoft® Excel 2010
CADEC can compute the ABD and H matrices, the hygroscopic loads, strains and stresses
Example: Axial strain vs. thickness
Failure criteria implemented in CADEC
Example output
CADEC predicts initiation and evolution of intralaminar damage, as well as consequent stiffness degradation and eventual laminate failure
Crack density in one lamina vs. applied laminate strain. All laminas may crack and all are evaluated and calculated
CADEC predicts alll the properties, including stiffness and strength, of laminas reinforced with textile fabrics
Micrograph of a plain weave fabric
Example output and methods implemented
