Multiscale Material Modeling
and Characterisation
Virtual testing of composite materials and property evaluation
from concept to reality using Multiscale.Sim CAE Analysis
Typical Material Properties Developed
Linear
Elastic Analysis - Elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, Shear elastic
modulus, Linear expansion coefficient, Density.
Heat Transfer Analysis - Thermal conductivity, Specific heat.
Penetration Analysis - Permeability for Darcy's law.
Electric Current Analysis - Electrical resistivity.

What Multiscale.Sim can do
Multiscale.Sim can evaluate macroscopic anisotropic
material constants for wide variety of composites. It can
evaluate non-linear material behaviour as well as linear
ones. Typically, all the features are included in one
license while many templates are being provided to
create the microstructure in a simplified manner.
Multiscale.Sim is developed for the Ansys Workbench™
environment. It also allows you to directly import
materials data from several other popular CAE so ware.
What is Multiscale Analysis?
Non-Linear
Homogenization Analysis (numerical material test)
- Elasto-plasticity, Creep, Hyper-elastic, Viscoelastic,
Piezo-electric, Damage.
Homogenization Analysis (physical properties identified)
- Elasto-plasticity, Creep, Hyper-elastic, Viscoelastic.
Localization - Geometric non-linear, Non-linear material (Elasto-plasticity,
Creep, Hyper-elastic, Viscoelastic).
The multi-scale analysis literally combines the behavior or properties of both structural material with
different scales. To put into a few words, there are various methods of approach and one of the
techniques such as the homogenization method has been well established method. For example,
composite materials that are used for various products in recent years consist of multiple, different
materials. Presuming that the characteristics of the composite material can be homogenized, one
could predict the behavior of the overall product. As a result, ideal material design is possible.
