Novel Pulp Fibre Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites

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 ...

Quantitative damage detection in CFRP composites: coupled mechanical and electrical models

William Curtin

Electrical resistance in carbon-fiber reinforced polymers has been shown experimentally to be a sensitive measure of internal damage. To quantify the dependence of electrical resistance on mechanical fiber damage at the micromechanical level, a numerical e ...

Electromechanical modeling of unidirectional CFRP composites under tensile loading condition

William Curtin

The present paper addresses the correlation between mechanical damage and the change in electrical resistance of CFRP under tensile loading. A linear relation between the strain and the electrical resistance of single carbon fibers was obtained experimenta ...

Transient moisture effects on wood creep

John Christopher Plummer

To gain insight into the physical nature of the coupling between mechanical stress and humidity variations, the behaviour of thin wood strips was studied using specially developed apparatus for creep/recovery and relaxation/blotting-out tests in a controll ...

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 ...

Pt and Pd supported on glass fibers as effective combustion catalysts

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi

Pd and Pt supported on glass fiber materials with developed porosity and high sp. surface areas were studied in total propane oxidn. The reaction was carried out in recycling reactor and the kinetic parameters were detd. under different reaction conditions ...

Glass fiber catalysts for total oxidation of CO and hydrocarbons in waste gases

Albert Renken, Lioubov Kiwi

Different glass fibers in woven forms were used as supports for Pt and Pd catalysts and were tested in toluene and CO total oxidn. at atm. pressure. The catalytic activity and the ignition-extinction temps. were investigated in relation to chem. compn. of ...

Fiber-fiber interaction in concentrated suspensions : Disperse fibers

A hypothesis for fiberfiber interaction in planar randomly oriented concentrated fiber suspensions is proposed and tested. The idea is that at sufficiently high fiber concentrations, friction and lubrication at fiberfiber contact points are the dominant ...

Effect of SiO2 binder on the precipitation state of an AlCu4Mg1Ag/Saffil composite

Philippe Buffat, Cyril Cayron

The microstructure of an AlCu4Mg1Ag alloy reinforced with 15 vol% Al2O3-Saffil fibers was investigated by analytical transmission electron microscopy and compared to the microstructure of the unreinforced alloy. The investigation results show that the comp ...
