Additional information
This paper reports the development of novel software that can reproduce the statistical variability in fibre directions observed in real advanced composite materials, which are also reported in this work. The capabilities afforded by the numerical code formed the basis of a successful 6-month feasibility study grant from EPSRC (part of EP/1033513/1, PI: Harrison) to further enhance the software with the aim of guiding the manufacture of low-cost steered fibre laminates. This has resulted in a new modelling capability for steered fibre laminates.
