Static and High Strain Rate Compression Response of Thick Section Twill Weave S-2 Glass/Vinyl Ester Composites Manufactured by Affordable Liquid Molding Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fiber reinforced composites, due to their higher specific strength and specific stiffness, are replacing many metallic structures. Of these, thick composite laminates are of high interest in ...
Physical, Mechanical, and Degradability Properties of Chemically Treated Jute Fiber Reinforced Biodegradable Nanocomposites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Biodegradable composites were fabricated using chemically treated woven jute fiber, a biodegradable polymer (biopol), and 2–4 wt. % montmorillonite K10 nanoclay by compression molding process. ...
Mechanical Characterization of XD-Grade Carbon Nanotube/Epon 862 Processed by Dual Phase Dispersion Technique
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Uniform dispersion of the constituent nanomaterial is essential in attaining optimal results for nanocomposite fabrication. In this research, a dual-phase dispersion method is studied combining a ...
Degradation of Mechanical Properties of Conventional and Nanophased Carbon/Epoxy Composites in Seawater
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Composites used for marine applications are subjected to various environmental effects, such as moisture, temperature, UV radiation, and seawater. In this study, effect of seawater on the degradation ...
Effects of Temperature and Moisture on the High Strain Rate Compression Response of Graphite/Epoxy Composites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental investigations were carried out on unidirectional Graphite/Epoxy laminate samples under dynamic compression loading using a modified Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar. High strain rate testing ...
