Dynamic Properties of Materials for Alpine Skis

Véronique Michaud, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, John Christopher Plummer, Etienne Combaz, Christian Fischer

The aim of the present research has been to quantify the influence of different materials on the global dynamic response of a ski. The properties of the individual constituent materials were characterized as a function of temperature and frequency using dy ...

Plastics

Thierry Meyer, Philip Nising

A review in 4 sections comprising synthetic methods and prodn. processes of plastics (section I), apparatuses for prodn., processing, and making of plastics (section II), manufg. processes for the most important plastics (section III), and processing of th ...

Alkali-Methanol-Anthraquinone pulping of Miscanthus x giganteus for thermoplastic composite reinforcement

Yves Leterrier

The potential of pulp fiberreinforced thermoplastics is currently not fully explored in composites. One of the main reasons is that pulp fibers are extracted for the use in papermaking and are thus not optimized for use as reinforcements in thermoplastics ...

Novel Pulp Fibre Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites

Yves Leterrier

The reinforcement potential of pulp fibres is presently not fully explored in thermoplastic composites. One of the reasons is that currently used processing methods comprise several severe thermomechanical steps inducing premature degradation of the fibres ...

Matrix chemistry optimisation of Al/Altex composites preserving both fibres and matrix alloy integrity

Philippe Buffat, Cyril Cayron, Sébastien Vaucher

The mechanical properties of continuous fibre reinforced metals (CFRMs) are known to be very sensitive to the selection and composition of the metallic matrix; for aluminium based CFRMs, commercial alloys are not suitable for this purpose. In the present s ...

A 3D shear-lag model considering micro-damage and statistical strength prediction of unidirectional fiber-reinforced composites

William Curtin

A new numerical model is proposed for simulating the mechanical behavior of unidirectional composites which is based on a three-dimensional (3D) shear-lag model. The 3D shear-lag model considers the micro-damage phenomena of interfacial debonding and inter ...

Multiscale modeling of failure in metal matrix composites

William Curtin

A multiscale approach to composite failure, in which detailed information on small-scale micromechanics is incorporated approximately yet accurately into larger-scale models capable of simulating extensive damage evolution and ultimate failure, is applied ...
