  - <jats:p>The mechanical joining of continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastics (cFRTP)
    and metal sheets represents a promising approach for manufacturing hybrid lightweight
    structures. To reduce the time and cost associated with extensive experimental
    investigations, numerical modeling strategies are increasingly applied. In this
    numerical study, a further step in the modelling strategy for the direct pin-pressing
    (DPP) process of cFRTP and metal sheets is presented. The study focuses on modeling
    and simulating the occurring deformation mechanisms of decomposition, compaction,
    and separation of individual rovings on the mesoscale to analyze the resulting
    material structure. For this purpose, two simplified models were derived. The
    textile architecture is represented based on micrographs of cross-sections and
    discretized using the finite element method. The deformation of individual rovings
    during joining leads to a deformation of their initial elliptical cross section.
    To capture this level of resolution, both a cohesive zone and a pure contact approach
    are applied within the rovings. The highly viscous thermoplastic melt is modeled
    as a fluid employing the Arbitrary Lagrange–Eulerian (ALE) method. Matrix and
    roving meshes are coupled to account for fluid–structure interaction (FSI) during
    process. The study shows that coupling of matrix and rovings is necessary to obtain
    more accurate predictions of the deformation behaviour. Furthermore, the cohesive
    zone approach is better suited to simulate the emerging deformation mechanisms.</jats:p>@eng
