CADEC allows the user to calculate a wide variety of properties.
Sample plot of E2 vs. 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.
