A technique for the measurement of reinforcement fibre tensile strength at sub-millimetre gauge lengths [PDF]
The strength of composite reinforcement fibres is normally measured on samples of much greater length than the actual residual fibre lengths found in many composite materials.

On the performance of a viscoelastic constitutive model for micro injection moulding simulations
The numerical simulation of the injection moulding process involving microstructures presents several challenges, mainly due to the surface effects that dominate the flow behaviour at the microscale. In this paper a new approach, which employs weld lines

Chopped basalt fibres: A new perspective in reinforcing poly(lactic acid) to produce injection moulded engineering composites from renewable and natural resources [PDF]
This paper focuses on the reinforcing of Poly(lactic acid) with chopped basalt fibres by using silane treated and untreated basalt fibres. Composite materials with 5–10–15–20–30–40 wt% basalt fibre contents were prepared from silane sized basalt fibres

Interfacial strength in thermoplastic composites - at last an industry friendly measurement method? [PDF]
Many elegant techniques have been developed for the quantification of composite micro-mechanical parameters in recent years. Unfortunately, most of these techniques have found little enthusiastic support in the industrial product development environment,
