The Nail Penetration Behaviour of Carbon Nanotube Composite Electrodes for Energy Storage
Koliolios, E; Mills, DG; Busfield, JJC; Tan, W (Frontiers, 2021-10-21)The high surface area, electrical and mechanical properties of carbon nanotube (CNT) composites has rendered them promising candidates for structural power composites. Nevertheless, it is important to understand their ... -

Tan, W; Martinez-Paneda, E (2022) -
Phase field fracture predictions of microscopic bridging behaviour of composite materials
Tan, W; Martínez-Pañeda, E (2022-01-09) -
Phase field predictions of microscopic fracture and R-curve behaviour of fibre-reinforced composites
Tan, W; Martínez-Pañeda, E (Elsevier BV, 2020-11-07)We present a computational framework to explore the effect of microstructure and constituent properties upon the fracture toughness of fibre-reinforced polymer composites. To capture microscopic matrix cracking and ... -
A physically-based constitutive model for the shear-dominated response and strain rate effect of carbon fibre reinforced composites
Tan, W; Liu, B (Elsevier, 2020)A significant hardening response is often observed for the shear-dominated deformation of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics (CFRP). This non-linear response is typically modelled by fitting a strain hardening law against ... -
Porosity-dependent stability analysis of bio-inspired cellular nanocomposite shells
Sobhani Aragh, B; Tan, W; Borzabadi Farahani, E; Al-Greer, M; Hughes, D (Elsevier, 2023-09-01)This paper presents an innovative numerical model to investigate buckling behaviour of bio-inspired continuously graded porous (CGP) nanocomposite cylindrical shells. It is postulated that the shell subjected to combined ... -
Progressive Damage Modelling and Fatigue Life Prediction of Plain-weave Composite Laminates with Low-velocity Impact Damage
Tan, W; Cheng, Z; Xiong, J-J (Elsevier, 2021-06)This paper developed a fatigue-driven residual strength model considering the effects of low-velocity impact (LVI) damage and stress ratio. New fatigue failure criteria based on fatigue-driven residual strength concept and ... -
The role of interfacial properties on the intralaminar and interlaminar damage behaviour of unidirectional composite laminates: Experimental characterization and multiscale modelling
Tan, W; Naya, F; Yang, L; Chang, T; Falzon, BG; Zhan, L; Molina-Aldareguia, JM; Gonzalez, C; Llorca, J (Elsevier, 2018-04-01)The development of the latest generation of wide-body passenger aircraft has heralded a new era in the utilisation of carbon-fibre composite materials. One of the primary challenges facing future development programmes is ... -
The role of material characterisation in the crush modelling of thermoplastic composite structures
Tan, W; Falzon, BG; Price, M; Liu, H (2016) -
Temperature-dependent cutting physics in orthogonal cutting of carbon fibre reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) composite
Ge, J; Tan, W; Ahmad, S; Falzon, BG; Catalanotti, G; Higgins, C; Jin, Y; Sun, D (Elsevier, 2023-10-01)The global commitment towards reducing carbon emissions drives the implementation of sustainable carbon-fibre-reinforced-thermoplastic composites (CFRTPs). However, the machining of CFRTPs presents challenges due to the ...
