Journal ArticleDOI
The concept of boundary interphase in composite mechanics
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the thermomechanical behavior of a particle composite under the assumption that a boundary interphase between the matrix and the filler particles develops, upon which the overall behavior of the composite depends.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water absorption mechanism and some anomalous effects on the mechanical and viscoelastic behavior of an epoxy system
TL;DR: In this article, the mechanical and viscoelastic behavior of an epoxy resin system is studied as a function of absorbed water, temperature, and time of immersion, and a model for the description of the experimentally observed mechanical behavior due to hygrothermal aging is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural, mechanical and electrical characterization of epoxy-amine/carbon black nanonocomposites
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of preparation procedure and the filler content on both electrical and mechanical properties of a nanocomposite system was analyzed using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA), Dielectric Relaxation Spectroscopy (DRS), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Wide Angle X-ray Diffraction (WAXD) and electrical conductivity measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the non-linear viscoelastic behaviour of polymer-matrix composites
TL;DR: In this article, the non-linear viscoelastic response of a unidirectional carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer composite has been studied and an analytical method, based on a modified version of Schapery's constitutive relationship where a viscoplastic term was added, has been developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of hygrothermal aging on the durability of a pultruded flat sheet, immersed in distilled water at 25, 40, 60, or 80°C for a period of 224 days was examined.
