Fibre-reinforced composites are rapidly gaining market share in structural applications, but
further growth is limited by their lack of toughness. Fibre hybridisation is a promising strategy …

Fibre-hybrid composites are composed of two or more fibre types in a matrix. Such
composites offer more design freedom than non-hybrid composites. The aim is often to …

The present experimental study aims at learning the mechanical behavior of natural fiber
composites. Natural fibers have an attracting the interest to engineers, researchers …

Natural fibres will take a major role in the emerging “green” economy based on energy
efficiency, the use of renewable materials in polymer products, industrial processes that …

Bio-based composites are reinforced polymeric materials in which one of the matrix and
reinforcement components or both are from bio-based origins. The biocomposite industry …

This work presents an experimental demonstration of the significant improvement in the
damage resistance of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) Kevlar sandwich composite …

In this experimental study, the impact behavior of hybrid composite plates has been
investigated. The increasing impact energy was performed on two types of hybrid composite …

An existing challenge in the use of continuous fiber reinforcements in additively
manufactured parts is the limited availability of suitable fiber materials. This leads to a …

Hybrid composite laminates including carbon fibers and natural fibers, hence basalt and/or
vegetable ones, draw on the experiences accumulated in studying the hybridization of …

The present experimental investigation deals with the impact responses of hybrid
composites (carbon–glass fiber/epoxy) under various temperatures. A number of samples …
