A curved beam model is presented for studying the effect of fiber yarn waviness on the tensile strength of woven composite materials. In the model, a curved beam is assumed to be supported, with an elastic tension or shear foundation in a woven composite material, either with the open-mode type or with the shear mode type. By using the maximum stress criterion in a fiber yarn, the ultimate tensile strength of a woven composite material can be determined together with the failure location. The curved beam modeling procedure is then utilized to predict the ultimate failure stress of the 3D orthogonal woven composite materials when subject to a tensile load in the filler direction. For the open-mode type or shear mode type, a good agreement is found between the measured and predicted failure stress in the filler direction for the 3D orthogonal woven CFRP composite materials. A parametric study shows that the failure stress in the filler direction is remarkably affected by the span length and the amplitude of the filler yarn waviness, and slightly affected by the volume fraction of the z yarn and the Young's modulus of resin matrix. The height and width of the filler yarn do not seem to affect the failure stress in the filler direction.

The significance of composite materials and their applications are mainly due to their good properties. This imposes the need for their recycling, thus extending their lifetime. Once used composite material will be disposed as a waste at the end of it service life. After recycling, this kind of waste can be used as raw materials for the production of same material, which raises their applicability. This indicates a great importance of recycling as a method of the renowal of composite materials. This study represents a contribution to the field of mechanical properties of the recycled composite materials. The tension mechanical properties (tensile strength and modulus of elasticity) of once used and disposed glass-epoxy composite material were compared before and after the recycling. The obtained results from mechanical tests confirmed that the applied recycling method was suitable for glass-epoxy composite materials. In respect to the tensile strength and modulus of elasticity it can be further assessed the possibility of use of recycled glass-epoxy composite materials.

This research aims to determine the effect of the mixture and the ratio of the composites and their interactions to the characteristics of the bioplastic composites and to determine the mix and ratio of the composites that produce the best characteristics of the bioplastic composites. The experimental design of this study used a randomized block design method. Factor I is a mixture of composite materials consisting of maizena-glucomannan, maizena-chitosan, and maizena-carrageenan. The second factor is the ratio of the composite material mixture which consists of 5 levels, namely 100: 0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0: 100. The experiment resulted in 15 treatment combinations and were grouped into 2 groups when the process of making bioplastic composites was obtained, so that 30 experimental units were obtained. Data were analyzed for their diversity and continued with Duncan's multiple comparison test. The observed variables which tensile strength, elongation at break, modulus young, swelling, and biodegradation time. The results showed that the mixture and the ratio of the composites forming a very significant effect on tensile strength, elongation at break, elasticity, and swelling. The interaction has a very significant effect on tensile strength, elasticity and swelling and significantly affects the elongation at break of bioplastic composites. Meanwhile, the mixture and the ratio of the ingredients to form the composites had no significant effect on the biodegradation time. Maizena:glucomannan composite with ratio (25:75) produced the best characteristics of bioplastic composites with tensile strength values of 6.99 MPa, elongation at break of 16.5%, elasticity 42.39 MPa, swelling 78.78% and biodegradable time of 7 days. There are 2 variables that have met the standard, namely: elongation at break of bioplastic composites that meet the plastic Standard SNI 7188.7: 2016 and biodegradation time has met the international plastic standard ASTM 5336 and 3 variables that do not meet the standards, namely: Tensile strength (6,99 MPa) and elasticity (42,39 MPa) do not meet the Plastic Standard SNI 7188.7: 2016 and swelling (39,1%) does not meet international plastic standards (EN 317).

The CFRP composite materials due to their excellent mechanical properties are more often used in civil engineering. In recent more than ten years has been observed e.g. much wider application of CFRP strips in structural strengthening. The research on this subject clearly showed the advantages of prestressed strips application in contrast to passive one. The CFRP utilization is much more effective in terms of strength and economy. However, the system effectiveness depends on reliability of anchoring used for prestressed strips. The main goal of the research presented in the paper was to develop a new, innovative, effective and reliable anchoring system for CFRP strips. The achievement of quite high carrying capacity of new anchorages was able thanks to combining friction, bonding and rivet clamping in one CFRP-steel joint. The research results revealed the effectiveness of new anchoring system with carrying capacity level of about 70% of the CFRP ultimate tensile strength.

Fibrous composite materials continue to be researched and developed with the long-term goal of becoming an alternative to metal substitutes. Due to the nature of the fiber reinforced composite material, its high tensile strength, and low density compared to metal. In general, the composition of the composite consists of reinforcing fibers and a matrix as the binding material. The potential of natural fibers as a reinforcing composite material is still being developed and investigated. The research that has been done aims to determine the characteristics of the tensile strength of the composite strengthened with Hibiscus tiliaceust bark powder (HTBP) with alkaline NaOH and KOH treatment. The reinforcing material used is HTBP and the matrix is polyester resin, with volume fraction of 5%, 10% and 20% with an alkaline treatment of 5% NaOH and 5% KOH with immersion for 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours and 8 hours. Tensile testing specimens and procedures refer to ASTM D3039 standard. The results of this study showed the highest tensile strength of 34.96 MPa in the alkaline treatment of 5% KOH, soaking time of 8 hours with a volume fraction of 10% and the lowest tensile strength of 21.96 MPa of 5% KOH alkaline treatment, soaking time of 6 hours with a volume fraction of 20%. .with 10% volume fraction of 34.96 MPa and the lowest tensile strength was 5% KOH alkaline treatment at 6 hours immersion with 20% volume fraction.

Background/Objectives: This study designed a model that used the sandwich-style notched tensile specimens of the same specifications by applying to the properties of CFRP, stainless steel, and aluminum, and performed a test simulation.Methods/Statistical analysis: The study used CATIA design software to perform the 3D modeling of the sandwich-style notched tensile specimens with the properties of CFRP, a composite material, and stainless steel and aluminum, both ordinary metals, and then, performed a tensile test simulation.Findings: By designing the sandwich-style notched tensile specimens of the same specifications and performing a test simulation, we were able to verify the tensile strength and durability of the specimens for the different materials. This study result showed that unlike the specimens for the ordinary metals, those specimens with the properties of the composite material of CFRP first showed maximum load instead of breaking immediately due to the fibers in CFRP, before they resisted displacement in response to the alternately increasing and decreasing load until it fractured. To be specific, we saw that the CFRP specimens had the more excellent tensile strength and durability.Improvements/Applications: The data obtained from the studies will serve as the basic data for studies on the composite materials like CFRP and other various materials.

CFRP composite with light weight, high strength, and high elasticity compared to metal is widely used rather than previous steel plates. However, CFRP composite material has the weakness in hygrothermal and impact collapsed environment. Especially, moisture absorption into composite material under hygrothermal environment can change molecule arrangement and chemical properties. Therefore, the purpose of this study lies in acquiring quantitative design data that can be put into the practice by comparing and evaluating the strength degradation under the environment where the moisture is absorbed by conducting static and impact collapse test after setting extreme condition for CFRP composite that takes consistent form such as frontal side members that is actually used in vehicle. This study compared and studied change in the progress of a moisture absorption ratio after setting up the temperature of 60 degrees, and 80 degrees in order to comprehend how the change in the temperature impacts on moisture absorption status inside CFRP composite materials. As a result of this study showed that the strength reduction of about 50% appears due to moisture absorptions. In addition, it showed that the higher the temperature is, the more rapid the progress of a moisture absorption inside CFRP composite materials is. Accordingly, it showed that the change in matrix also has a weak point.

Background: Nanofiber membrane/non-woven composite material is composed of electrospinning nanofiber membrane and non-woven fabric, which combines the supporting role of nonwoven material and the special nano-size effect of nanomaterials. Objective: These composite material can be widely used in biomedical, filtration and other related fields. In the actual use process, nanofiber membrane/non-woven composite material is often subjected to external forces such as puncture or bursting. As a result, the mechanical study of nanofiber membrane/ non-woven composite materials has a high value and practical significance. Methods: The nanofiber membrane/non-woven composite material was obtained by spraying solution (different concentrations of titanium dioxide-loaded Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)) on meltblown polyester non-woven fabric. The surface morphology and fiber diameter of different concentrations nanotitanium dioxide-loaded Poly (vinyl alcohol) fiber were investigated by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The surface distribution of TiO2 on the electrospun fibrous membranes was characterized by Energy Disperse Spectroscopy (EDS). The semi-blunt puncture behavior of different concentrations of nano-titanium dioxide-loaded nanofiber membrane/non-woven composite material was conducted by universal material machine. Results: With the increase of concentrations of nano-titanium dioxide particles, the surface smoothness of nanofibers diminishes, the unevenness of the diameter distribution of the fiber increased and the maximum semi-blunt puncture strength increased. Conclusion: The addition of hard particles does contribute to improving the puncture properties of the composite materials. Several patents, related to electrospinning and bubble electrospinning equipment for nanofiber fabrication, have been reported.
