Carbon Bike Design Protocols
https://www.ansys.com/staticassets/AN...-Ply-Cycle.pdf
This just appeared in my "daily feed". It's from Ansys.com.
It is only Two (2) pages, as a pdf. It was originally published in German, but is shown here translated into English.
I hope this will help any Framebuilder who is working on a Carbon Fiber Ladies Bicycle, although the illustration shows a Mens Bike.

"....With ANSYS Composite PrepPost, the stiffness and resistance characteristics of fiber-reinforced bicycle components can be optimally adapted to meet design requirements; furthermore, design efficiency is significantly improved. Compared to typical trial-and-error development methods used in the bicycle industry, the number of cost- and time-intensive physical prototypes was greatly reduced."
I don't know what this Ansys Software costs, but with the price of Carbon Fiber, it should be well worth it, given the chance of a failure using trial-and-error methods.
