  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>In this contribution, the isogeometric analysis is used to compute the effective material properties of textile reinforced composites. The isogeometric analysis based on non‐uniform rational B‐splines (NURBS) provides an efficient approach for numerical modeling because there is no need for a mesh generation. There are further advantages such as the availability of a geometry representation based on NURBS in computer‐aided design software and the possibility to apply different refinement methods which do not change the geometry of the numerical model. These properties motivate the combination of the isogeometric analysis with the homogenization method. Therefor, the unit cell model representing the inner architecture of a textile reinforced composite is defined using NURBS. In order to compute the effective mechanical properties of the heterogeneous material, the homogenization method with periodic boundary conditions is applied. Finally, two examples demonstrate the advantages of this approach. (© 2011 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH &amp; Co. KGaA, Weinheim)</jats:p>
