This cutting-edge review highlights the fundamentals, design, and manufacturing strategies used for sandwich composites. Sandwich composite structures have advantages of light weight, high strength, impact resistance, stability, other superior features advanced applications. In this regard, different core materials been in structures, such as cellular polymer foam, metallic honeycomb, balsa, tu...

This study investigates the effect of water absorption on flexural strength kenaf/ glass/unsaturated polyester (UPE) hybrid composite solid round rods used for insulating material applications. Three volume fractions kenaf/glass fibre 20:80 (KGPE20), 30:70 (KGPE30), and 40:60 (KGPE40) with three different arrangement profiles kenaf fibres were fabricated by using pultrusion technique aimed at s...

The plate of a pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer or fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) profile produced via a pultrusion process is likely to undergo local buckling and cracking along the fiber direction under an external load. In this study, we constructed a pultruded glass-fiber-reinforced polymer-light wood composite (PGWC) profile to explore its mechanical performance. A rectangular cross-sect...

Sandwich composite are used in numerous structural applications, with demonstrated weight savings over conventional metals and solid composite materials. The increasing use of sandwich composites in defense structures, particularly those which may be exposed to shock loading, demands for a thorough understanding of their response to suc highly transient loadings. In order to fully utilize their...

The recent superiority of the composite materials is cautiously focusing on environmental adoption natural fiber composites. major source covered in globe, especially fibers, plant-based, animal-based and mineral-based. Eco friendly based material can save environment recycling possible, as well important criteria. Hence engineers ultimately focused polymer matrix to environment, pollution cont...

The increase in the number of structural applications composite materials, especially aerospace and automotive industries, has led to a demand for robust models simulate forming processes. mechanical behaviour materials during is relatively complex due their fibre-matrix composition. Many research studies have been conducted past 25-plus years into experimental methods characterization behaviou...
