THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE TENSILE PROPERTIES OF NATURAL FIBRES AND THEIR UD COMPOSITES

Kevin Hendrickx (KU Leuven) Delphine Depuydt (KU Leuven) Aart Van Vuure (KU Leuven) Jan Ivens (KU Leuven)

 

A method is presented to significantly reduce the amount of samples for single fibre testing. Futhermore, the relationship between single fibre tensile properties and the composite behavior was investigated using this novel testing method.

A STUDY ON FATIGUE BEHAVIOR OF NANOINTERLEAVED WOVEN CFRP

Tommaso Brugo (University of Bologna) Giangiacomo Minak (University of Bologna) Andrea Zucchelli (University of Bologna) Xiu Yan (University of Strathclyde) Hamed Saghafi (Amirkabir University of Technology) Mohamad Fotouhi (Amirkabir University of Technology) Roberto Palazzetti (University of StrathClyde)

 

DCB virgin and nanomodified CFRP were tested and compared. Static tests showed nanomodified specimens 130% stronger. Crack grow ratio chart showed that nanomodified specimen can sustain a 85%higher load and that fracture propagates 30 times slower.

DEVELOPMENT OF GRAPHENE NANOPLATELETS REINFORCED ALUMINIUM MATRIX NANOCOMPOSITES BY A COMBINATION OF SEMI-SOLID STIRRING AND ULTRASONIC TREATMENT

Sinan Kandemir (İZMİR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY) Yücel Aydoğan (İZMİR INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY)

 

The aim of this study is to disperse graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) into liquid aluminium. 0.5 wt.% GNPs were first incorporated into aluminium alloy under semi-solid stirring, and then the composite was ultrasonically treated in molten alloy.
