PhD project: Physics-based modeling of network dformation and damage in natural fibre moulding
Supervisor: Sören Östlund
Dissertation planned to: 2030-12-31
Research area:
My objective is to develop a 3D FEM model of the dry-forming process for cellulose fibre networks. I will calibrate a material model capturing large strains, densification, anisotropy, plasticity, damage and viscoelastic/viscoplastic effects.
