High Performance Discontinuous Composites (HPDCs) combine performance and manufacturability, which makes them suitable for automotive structures. However, due to the intrinsic variability in the microstructure of HPDCs, the local modulus and strength of these materials are highly heterogeneous, which raises a challenge in designing and simulating the structural response of a HPDC component. This work analyses the mechanical response of the engine bonnet of the Lamborghini Huracan PERFORMANTE, simulated using a FE Monte-Carlo framework developed specifically for HPDC structures. A significant spread of the maximum failure index and location of the critical region of the bonnet is observed, which highlights the effect of variability in HPDC materials on their structural performance.
