Abstract:

Considering the interaction between fiber-inclusion and strong constraining interphase, forth-phase model is suggested to determine the local stress field distribution of three-phase element in eutectic ceramic rod. On the basis of the volumetric average strain, the effective compliance tensor increment of eutectic ceramic rod is obtained. The remote stress boundary condition of the eutectic ceramic rod is accounted for getting the micro stress field of fibers in eutectic ceramic rod. The results show the micro stress field of the fiber-inclusion in eutectic ceramic rod is associated with the

The effect of fiber diameter on the shape memory effect (SME) and superelasticity (SE) was systematically studied. The results showed that all Ni-Mn-Ga fibers exhibited good stress assisted thermal cycles and SE, both diameter-dependent.

Usage of discontinuous glass fibers in injection- and compression-molded resin components is rapidly increasing to improve their mechanical properties. Since added fiber contributes to more strength along the fiber direction compared with transverse direction, the mechanical properties of such components strongly depend on the fiber orientation.

In this article, we are presenting a recently developed method to estimate fiber orientation using micro computerized tomography (CT) scan-generated three-dime

This study investigates the mechanical and impact resistance properties of high-performance cementitious composites (HPCCs) incorporating hybrid fibers under a low water-to-binder ratio, with a focus on the multi-scale synergistic effects of different fiber types. Aramid fibers (AFs), basalt fibers (BFs), and calcium sulfate whiskers (CSWs) contribute to reinforcement at the macro, meso, and micro levels, respectively. Experimental results reveal that hybrid fiber systems significantly outperform single-fiber composites in terms of both impact resistance and crack suppression. The optimal mix

Abstract:

The various wastes generated by silkworm silk textiles that are no longer in use are increasing, which is causing considerable waste and contamination. This issue has attracted widespread attention in countries that use a lot of silk. Therefore, enhancing the mechanical properties of regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) and enriching the function of silk are important directions to expand the comprehensive utilization of silk products. In this paper, the preparation of RSF/Al2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) hybrid fiber with different Al2O3 NPs contents by wet spinning and its novel performance are reported.

Abstract The aim of this experimental work was the enhancement of water solubility of the lipid lowering atorvastatin, by embedding it in polymer based micro sized fibers obtained by electrospinning. We prepared a polyvinylpyrrolidone (Kollidon 90F®) dispersion and added the active substance. By setting the experimental parameters we obtained four different microfibers containing atorvastatin, and one without the drug. The pH, viscosity and conductivity of the dispersions have been measured. The drug content and dissolution of atorvastatin had been studied by capillary electrophoresis. The siz

Abstract:

Carbon fiber-reinforced concrete as a structural material is attractive for civil infrastructure because of its light weight, high strength, and resistance to corrosion. Ultra-high performance concrete, possessing excellent mechanical properties, utilizes randomly oriented one-inch long steel fibers that are 200 microns in diameter, increasing the concrete’s strength and durability, where steel fibers carry the tensile stress within the concrete similar to traditional rebar reinforcement and provide ductility. Virgin carbon fiber remains a market entry barrier for the high-volume production of
