In this paper the authors present research into an integrative computational design methodology for the design and robotic implementation of fibre-composite systems. The proposed approach is based on the concurrent and reciprocal integration of biological analysis, material design, structural analysis, and the constraints of robotic filamentwindingwithin a coherent computational designprocess. ...

The necessity to utilise environmentally friendly resources has emerged due environmental management. With the demand for production of plastics and wood materials, pollution increased. Consequently, attraction in natural fibre-reinforced polymer composites (NFPCs) is rapidly emerging construction industry, mainly replace synthetic fibre composites. intensified interest associated with manufact...

Natural-fibre-reinforced polymer composites are most commonly employed in the automotive, aerospace and structural industries. This research focuses on synthesis analysis of dynamic properties a bamboo fibre used with polyester matrix nanocomposite produced titanium oxide nanoparticles. Bamboo-fibre samples were prepared using electroless plating method both their uncoated nickel-phosphorus-coa...

The results of a major research programme into the cost effective use of fibre reinforced composites offshore, undertaken as a Joint Industry Project by a consortium of universities and contractors are presented in this report. The report includes a detailed (54 page) summary of current offshore composite applications, followed by a review of the 43 projects conducted during the programme which...

Composite materials, comprised of fibre-reinforced polymers, offer a high strength-to-weight ratio, making them excellent for the building complex, lightweight structures in several industries, including marine industry. There is an improvement fuel efficiency and cost-effectiveness general component developments as result flexible design characteristics. Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composit...
