A study of the effect of strain rate and temperature on the characteristics of quasi-unidirectional natural fibre reinforced composites
David-West, Opukuro; Banks, William; Pethrick, Richard (2011)The responses of quasi-unidirectional vegetable fibres (sisal and flax) – styrene polyester matrix composites under 6-J nominal strike energy at different sample temperatures and at higher impact energies of 9 and 12 J for ... -
Tensile testing of cellulose based natural fibres for structural composite applications
Symington, Mark; Banks, William; David-West, Opukuro; Pethrick, Richard (2009-05)A series of tensile tests were conducted on a Lloyd LRX tensile testing machine for numerous natural fibers deemed potential candidates for development in composite applications. The tensile tests were conducted on the ...
