Compression behavior and energy absorption capacity of woven flax-epoxy composite under various stain rates

Edgewise Compression Behavior of Three-Dimensional Integrated Woven Sandwich Composite Panels

Buckling Analysis of Woven Glass Epoxy Laminated Composite Plate

Buckling behavior of laminated composite plates subjected to in-plane loads is an important consideration in the preliminary design of aircraft components. The sizing of many structural subcomponents of the aircraft structures is often determined by stability constraints. The objective of the current study is to understand the influence of the length-to-thickness ratio, the aspect ratio, the fi...

Specific Energy Absorption Capacity of Glass-polyester Composite Tubes under Static Compressive Loading

INTRODUCTION Composite materials are often used to reduce the weight of structures. In the automotive industry weight reduction is important because fuel consumption is directly related to vehicular weight. There is an increased concern for occupant safety during roadway accidents. Metals are currently used in car frames and integrated frame-body structures, and these and other metallic compone...

Effect of strain rate on the compression behavior of a woven glass fiber/SC-15 composite

Strain rate dependent compression behavior of a plain-weave S-2 glass fabric SC-15 epoxy (rubber toughened resin) composite plate, currently studied as the backing plate for composite armor applications, was determined in the through-thickness direction (normal to the fiber plane) in the strain rate regime of 1 10 4 to 1:1 10 s . In the studied strain rate regime, the modulus and failure streng...

measurement the absorption capacity of solar energy storage technology

Although solar energy is one of the most important renewable energies in Iran that most areas of the country, especially the Central Desert, have considerable ability to use, but the random nature of this type of energy makes it difficult to predict its output power and may cause problems in the performance of the feed systems. For this reason, the use of energy storage systems for periods of l...
