Stochastic semi-analytical modeling of reinforced filaments for additive manufacturing

E. Polyzos et al.

Summary: This study presents a new stochastic modeling approach to address challenges in micromechanical modeling of short-fiber composites. It introduces a stochastic generation technique based on kernel density estimation to save time and effort in fiber extraction, and a novel semi-analytical approach to consider multiple fibers while reducing computational effort. The approach is demonstrated on recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) filaments reinforced with recycled short carbon fibers for additive manufacturing, showing similar predictions of elastic properties using only 40-50 fibers compared to a direct modeling approach with 1050 fibers, and close agreement with experimental data.

Stochastic modeling of the elastic response of parts produced by material extrusion using ideal voids

E. Polyzos et al.

Summary: A novel approach is proposed in this study to convert real voids to ideal supercylindrical ones, which better approximate the shape of voids and can be described by a single parameter. The elastic properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene are predicted using the polynomial chaos expansion technique. The results are compared with previous tensile tests and different modeling approaches to gain a comprehensive understanding of the advantages of the new approach.

Modeling elastic properties of 3D printed composites using real fibers

E. Polyzos et al.

Summary: The article investigates the microstructural morphology of 3D printed composites and the effect of microstructural irregularities on macrostructural elastic response through stochastic homogenization modeling. A novel methodology is introduced to generate realistic and ideal contours of carbon fibers, along with a method to generate single- and multiple-fiber representative volume elements in finite element software for approximating effective elastic properties. The results of numerical and semi-analytical modeling show good agreement with analytical models.
