The local microstructure can be altered significantly by various fibre surface modifications,
causing property differences between the interphase region and the bulk matrix. By using …

Unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites are increasingly used in the sectors of aerospace,
automotive, construction, marine and other technical applications over the decades due to …

The effect of damage due to interfacial debonding on the post initial failure behavior of
unidirectional fiber-reinforced polymers subjected to transverse tension was investigated …

The present paper focuses on the assessment of thermo-oxidative induced chemical strain
in HTS/TACTIX carbon/epoxy Organic Matrix Composites for High Temperature …

A combined numerical/experimental approach is used to study the effects of the
particle/matrix interphase on the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and Young's …

Conventional micromechanical experiments have difficulties in measuring the normal
strength of the fiber/matrix interphase. In this paper, molecular dynamics simulations were …

Due to the weak interface in shape memory alloy wire–reinforced composites, the influence
of interphase on the mechanical properties and stress distribution of hybrid composites is of …

A stoichiometric amine–epoxy formulation was cured in the presence of a thermoplastic,
namely poly (vinylpyrrolidone)(PVP). The epoxy system consisted of the resin diglycidyl …

The influence of interphase on the tensile property of composite is examined in the present
study. For this, fabrication of composite (FOC) is carried out using natural fibers: bamboo …

Experimental and theoretical studies in the literature have shown that a fiber surface
perturbs its surrounding polymer to create a three-dimensional interphase zone with …
