Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics of a silk fibre reinforced biodegradable plastic
TL;DR: In this article, a study on the mechanical properties and bio-degradability of silk fibre reinforced Poly (lactic-acid) (PLA) composites is conducted, and it has been found that the Young's modulus and flexural modulus of the composites increased with the use of silk fiber reinforcement while their tensile and flexur strengths decreased.
Journal ArticleDOI
On polyethylene–polyaniline composites
M. Chipara,David Hui,Petru V. Notingher,M. Chipara,Kin-tak Lau,Jag Sankar,Denis Mihaela Panaitescu +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a universal expression for the dependence of mechanical and electrical properties on the concentration of conducting particles in polyethylene-polyaniline blends is empirically suggested and supported by experimental data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of dynamic strain profile and delamination detection of composite structures using embedded multiplexed fibre-optic sensors
TL;DR: In this article, a dynamic strain measurement and delamination detection of clamped-clamped composite structures using embedded multiplexed Fibre-optic Bragg grating (FBG) sensors through experimental and theoretical approaches is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acousto-ultrasonic sensing for delaminated GFRP composites using an embedded FBG sensor
TL;DR: In this paper, an active damage detection system for composite laminates is introduced, where a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is employed as an embedded sensor for detecting ultrasonic Lamb wave generated by a piezoelectric actuator inside the Laminates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolving Strategies for Producing Multiscale Graphene-Enhanced Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites for Smart Structural Applications
TL;DR: Development of clear standards for the assessment of graphene material properties, improvement of existing materials and scalable manufacturing technologies, and specific regulations concerning human health and environmental safety are key factors to accelerate the successful commercialized gFRPs.
