      Hello,

      I'm looking to modelise a specific composite materials ( it is composed by two materials in the microstrucure : 40Ti3AlC2 and 60Al, I joint an image (SEM) :

      Hi,

      You can probably use Material Designer. Have a look at the relevant section in Ansys Help:

      You might need to generate a custom geometry for you RVE, given that it looks like an irregular, non-periodic, random structure.


      Hope this helps,

      Sai

      Hi,

      You can find some tips in this presentation: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/345978642_Modelling_of_Hybrids_Materials

      It's a webinar we did on this question. And actually, you have 2 main solutions :

      • Analytical modelling using rules of mixture with the Synthesizer tool for example in Ansys Granta EduPack
      • Numerical modelling using for example Material Designer and then Ansys Mechanical
