Fatigue strength of woven kenaf fiber reinforced composites

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2015
Nowadays, green composites provide alternative to synthetic fibers for non-bearing and load-bearing applications. According to literature review, lack of information is available on the fatigue performances especially when the woven fiber is used instead of randomly oriented fibers. In order to overcome this problem, this paper investigates the fatigue
