Abstract
A method, apparatus, and system for managing a composite structure. A set of component models is created for a set of components in the composite structure. A set of embedded reinforcement element models is placed within the set of component models for the set of components in the composite structure to form a composite structure model for the composite structure. The set of embedded reinforcement element models is for a set of embedded reinforcements embedded within the set of components in the composite structure. A structural analysis of the composite structure is performed using the composite structure model formed by the set of component models and the set of embedded reinforcement element models, wherein the set of embedded reinforcement element models enables modeling at least one of a deformation or a failure of embedded reinforcements.
