Study and Analysis of the Effects of Increasing Carbon Fiber Layers on the Physical and Creep Characterization Used for Lower Limb Prosthetic Socket Laminations

Advances in Polymer Technology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Prosthetic sockets for lower limb amputees are subject to hazardous loading conditions—especially in high ambient temperatures that exacerbate creep behavior, leading to material deformation, increased stress, and reduced comfort and performance.

Characterisation of the transverse thermoelastic properties of natural fibres used in composites [PDF]

, 2010
To predict the properties of a composite, it is necessary to identify the properties of the constituent materials, especially those of the fibre. Mechanical properties of natural fibres (NF) are anisotropic and cannot be characterised in the same way as ...
