Abstract:
Filament winding is an automated fabrication process for producing composite structures where fibers are wound onto a rotating mandrel. This technique become a leading technology in producing high pressure composite vessels.
Today, filament winding engineering requires to face upcoming challenges of high cost / high value applications like for instance mass-production for hydrogen passenger vehicles or weight optimization for spaceships propulsion systems.
In this presentation, we suggest an integrated approach to design, simulate and optimize a pressure vessel using Abaqus/FEA and WoundSim software, a new generation tool to design and simulate composite overwrapped pressure vessels.
S VERTICAL:
A services and solutions provider company specialized on high quality mechanical engineering. Leveraging industry proven methods and experienced team members, S VERTICAL puts together clear and concise custom simulation tools focused on enhancing customers productivity. Today, S VERTICAL is focused on the development of WoundSim software, a new generation tool to design and simulate composite overwrapped pressure vessels (COPVs).
WoundSim can be considered as the replacement solution of WCM SIMULIA Abaqus plugin.
