title = "Experimental and simulation study on the performance of Fiber Patch Placement (FPP)",
abstract = "The presented work shows a study on the performance of patch-based composites compared to composites with classical quasi-isotropic (QI) laminate. Usually, loading of industrial products results in curvilinear paths. Therefore open-hole specimens with curved contours were subjected to tensile loading. The chosen geometrical shape of the specimen prevents straight load transmission between the load application resulting in curvilinear load paths. A FE-based modeling technique for predicting the stiffness behavior will be investigated. Additionally, an approach for an automated patch-based modeling process will be presented. Experimental results including a digital image correlation will be used to evaluate the simulation results.",
