Mechanical analysis of elementary flax fibre tensile properties after different thermal cycles
TL;DR: In this article, a specific analysis was conducted to identify the three different types of mechanical behaviours and study the fiber performances according to the thermal treatments, and the microfibrillar realignment process was carefully studied thanks to an analysis of the tangent Young's modulus.

Composites reinforced with cellulose based fibres
TL;DR: In this article, a survey about physical and chemical treatment methods which improve the fiber matrix adhesion, their results and effects on the physical properties of composites is presented, and the influence of such treatments by taking into account fibre content on the creep, quasi-static, cyclic dynamic and impact behaviour of natural fibre reinforced plastics are discussed in detail.
