Composites infusion simulation accounting for mechanical deformation

Mechanical deformation of the preform might occur during resin injection, in processes such as Vacuum Assisted Resin Infusion (VARI), Compression-RTM (C-RTM), High Pressure RTM (HP-RTM) …. This deformation created by the resin pressure, locally modifies the properties of the preform (fiber content,...

Manufacturing of Automotive Interior components

PAM-COMPOSITES is well known for its capability to simulate the manufacturing of structural components reinforced with continuous fibers but it is also used to simulate the thermoforming of non-structural materials made from two or more constituents materials with significantly different physical or...

From CATIA CPD definition to ESI composite manufacturing simulation

CPD-to-ESI is an add-on to CATIA CPD (Composites Part Design) workbench, i.e. it is a command developed by ESI Group which is available directly in the CPD workbench through a dedicated icon in the toolbars.  This command that will be presented and demonstrated during the webinar, allows a user-f...

PAM-COMPOSITES 2016.5: What’s new for Curing and Distortion simulation?

In the December 2016 release of PAM-COMPOSITES, the existing solver of PAM-DISTORTION module has been replaced by a new high performance DMP solver. This new solver allows users to treat larger models with a reduced computation time. A conversion of existing models to the new solver is executed by t...

PAM-COMPOSITES 2016.5: What’s new for Liquid Composite Molding Simulation?

In the December 2016 release of PAM-COMPOSITES, important enhancements have been implemented in its PAM-RTM module. For instance, it is now possible to account for mechanical deformation occurring during Vacuum Assisted Resin Infusion (VARI) process thanks to the availability of a unique fluid-mecha...

PAM-COMPOSITES 2016.0: What's new for Draping and Thermoforming?

PAM-COMPOSITES covers a wide range of processes for the manufacturing of composites structural components. One of its application is for the Draping of dry textiles or the thermoforming of prepreg material (thermoset or organo-sheets). In July 2016, ESI released PAM-COMPOSITES 2016.0 version with sp...
