Epoxy-clay fiber reinforced plastics are employed in myriad applications. They, however, are
brittle with less impact strength/related properties. There has been tremendous amount of …

Hole making is an important phase in composite machining as structural applications of
composites require assemblage. To do so, abrasive waterjet machining (AWM) is …

The three-dimensional molded interconnected device (3D-MID) has received considerable
attention because of the growing demand for greater functionality and miniaturization of …

Epoxy‐based glass fiber nanocomposites (EGFCs) have good static mechanical properties
but lack in impact strength. Addition of thermoplastic fillers to EGFCs enhanced the impact …

The article discusses the fabrication, mechanical characterization, and heat resistance of
nano ZnO‐TiO2‐filled glass fiber‐reinforced LY556 epoxy composites, with focus on the …

Epoxy based glass fiber reinforced composite laminates containing silanized nanoclay and
compatibilized ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers were processed …

The friction stir welding (FSW) or friction stir spot welding (FSSW) with non-consumable tool
is one of the established processes for joining of thermoplastics/low melting point …

The reinforcements of nanoparticles have an important role in improving the machinability of
nanocomposite materials. Except for the known nanoparticles such as carbon nanotube …

In this work, the analysis of the formation processes of fiber composites with an epoxy matrix
is carried out. Methods of their formation and arrangement of fibers are considered. The …

This study demonstrates the solution for compatibility issues between two dissimilar
thermoplastic materials for friction stir welding (FSW) applications. The joints of similar …
