STUDY OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF BANANA-COIR HYBRID COMPOSITE USING EXPERIMENTAL AND FEM TECHNIQUES [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2013
The use of natural fibers as reinforcement in polymers has gained importance in recent years due to their eco-friendly nature. Thus, an investigation has been undertaken on banana-coir, which is a natural fiber abundantly available in India.

Towards more sustainable material formulations: a comparative assessment of PA11-SGW flexural performance versus oil-based composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The replacement of commodity polyolefin, reinforced with glass fiber (GF), by greener alternatives has been a topic of research in recent years. Cellulose fibers have shown, under certain conditions, enough tensile capacities to replace GF, achieving ...

Influence of Filler on Mechanical and Di-electric Properties of Coir and Luffa Cylindrica Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Hybrid Composites

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Natural fiber hybrid composites were prepared by Hand layup technique by reinforcing coir, silk squash, and CaCO3. Both coir and silk squash is maintained constant weight proportion of 10 wt. % and 5.7 wt. %, respectively, whereas as CaCO3 is varied with

Experimental study on mechanical properties of Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) is a variant of reinforced concrete in which textiles are used in place of steel reinforcing bars. Reinforcing the concrete with steel means increasing its tensile strength, but steel also corrodes and wears out over ...

A nonlinear macroelement formulation for the seismic analysis of masonry buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A macroelement is presented for the nonlinear dynamic analysis of masonry structures under seismic actions. The macroelement, developed in the framework of the equivalent frame model, has a force-based formulation and accounts for flexural and shear ...
