The present project work deals with the machining of natural fiber composite to study the delamination effect. The natural fiber composite consists of ROYSTONEA(Royal palm fiber) and material has matrix. And this composite has been fabricated by using hand layup method after extracting the fiber by retting method. Drilling operation has been carried out on the fabricated composite by using CNC ...

Probabilistic edge-delamination strength of a thermosetting polymer composite was studied experimentally in this work. During the procedure, by means of edge-delamination tensile test, the graphite–fiber/epoxy laminate made of unidirectional Toray P7051S-20Q-1000 prepregs with an optimized lay-up of [122/–122/02]S was used for examining its probabilistic distributions of the edge-delamination o...

The distinctive characteristics of carbon fibre reinforced plastics, like low weight or high specific strength, had broadened their use to new fields. In order to join different components by using bolts, rivets or screws, one of the machining operations needed in composite structures is drilling. Usually, it is accepted that drilling can be carried out using conventional tools and machinery wi...

In hybrid carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP)/Ti machining, the bi-material interface is the weakest region vulnerable to severe damage formation when the tool cutting from one phase to another phase and vice versa. The interface delamination as well as the composite-phase damage is the most serious failure dominating the bi-material machining. In this paper, an original finite element (FE) ...

Drilling of glass fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) composite is different from metallic materials due to its mechanical properties. The drilling of this material may generate delamination of drilled holes on workpiece. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of the cutting parameters, such as cutting speed and feed rate, point angle of drill and material thickness on delaminati...

Due to the mismatch of mechanical properties in composite laminates, propagation of delami-nation is considered as a severe damage mechanism in beams with various lay-up configurations. Delamination can be generated due to matrix cracking propagation or it can also be initiated due to the manufacturing process before using composite beams. Using a micromechanics model, this study is aimed to in...

in manufacturing industry, it has been acknowledged that tool wear prediction has an important role in higher quality of products and acceptable efficiency. being an emerging area of research in recent years, drilling tool wear is an important factor which directly affects quality parameters of machined hole such as hole centring, roundness, burr formation and finished surface. in this paper, t...

Diamond coatings made by processes such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) have been increasingly explored for cutting tools applications, in particular, for machining lightweight high-strength materials. However, most literature to date reported that the wear resistance of CVD diamond tools is still distant to the polycrystalline diamond (PCD) counterparts. Recently, a microwave plasma-assiste...

Tissue patterning relies on cellular reorganization through the interplay between signaling pathways and mechanical stresses. Their integration and spatiotemporal coordination remain poorly understood. Here we investigate the mechanisms driving the dynamics of cell delamination, diversely deployed to extrude dead cells or specify distinct cell fates. We show that a local mechanical stimulus (su...

Abstract The paper deals with the identification of the delamination in composites on the basis of the information for the displacements from the surfaces of damaged bodies. The identification of the active delamination region on the interface between two layers of given composite material is a non-linear programming problem that consists of minimization of a Kohn-Vogelius type of functional [3...
