“…Generally glass, carbon and aramid are used as fiber material. Mechanical properties of fiber reinforced composites in these studies are investigated experimentally, numerically and analytically [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. There are also some studies on basalt fiber and hydrojel composites [19,20] Frangopol et al investigated the reliability of a composite laminate plate by using Tsai-Wu failure criterion.…”

In this study, mechanical behavior of epoxy composite reinforced by unidirectional and woven fiber is investigated experimentally. In the preparation of composite samples woven shaped glass, aramid and carbon fibers and unidirectional shaped glass and carbon fibers were used. Tension, compression and shear tests were carried out to determine mechanical properties of composites. It is seen from the test results, that unidirectional carbon fiber shows better performance than the glass fiber. Mechanical properties of 0• -oriented unidirectional fiber are better than those of 90• -oriented unidirectional fiber. Mechanical properties of aramid-fiber-reinforced composite are higher than those of glass and carbon fiber, when the woven types of fibers are considered.

“…It increases shear and tensile strength of soil, while positively influencing the stress-strain behavior. Besides, past studies reveal that, studies in various disciplines utilize numerous kinds of fibers in different application areas [4][5][6][7]. Recent studies also reveal that, soil strength and axial deformation is increased by fiber inclusion, resulting in a more ductile behavior [8][9][10].…”

Dynamic Behavior of a Clayey Sand Reinforced with Polypropylene Fiber

It is a well-identified fact that more elaborate laboratory studies should be carried out for evaluation of dynamic properties of different types of soils. Regardless of the mechanisms affecting the mechanical behaviour of the soils, past studies reveal that existence of fiber positively affects the strength of either cohesive or non-cohesive soils. A short literature survey provides numerous studies on the stress-strain behaviour of fine/coarse soils, reinforced by polypropylene fiber. On the other hand, studies concerning fiber reinforced soils subjected to dynamic loading are relatively rare. Therefore, in this research it was intended to investigate the effects of polypropylene fiber inclusion on the dynamic behavior of a clayey sand soil, within an experimental framework. In this scope, a number of cyclic triaxial compression tests were conducted to assess the effect of fiber presence. The effects of fiber length and content were experimentally evaluated. Hence, the variation of shear modulus ratio and damping ratio values by shear deformation was plotted to observe the effects of fiber length and inclusion level as well. The results are presented along with detailed evaluations.

In this study, the effect of mechanical alloying parameters, namely the effect of process control agent, ballto-powder weight ratio and milling duration, on the synthesis of Cu25W composite powder was investigated. Planetary-type ball milling equipment was used to conduct mechanical alloying experiments. Stearic acid was used as the process control agent in order to establish a balance between cold welding and fracturing. The optimum amount of stearic acid was determined as a function of particle size and milling time at constant speed. By using this optimum amount of process control agent, three different ball-to-powder weight ratio values were also employed, and the effect of ball-to-powder weight ratio on particle size and morphology of Cu25W composite powders was investigated. The microstructural evolution of the milled powders was characterized using scanning electron microscopy and laser diffraction analysis. The test results have shown that the morphology and particle size distribution of the milled powders change significantly depending upon the milling parameters. In addition, higher ball-to-powder weight ratio values tend to lower the milling duration for the same amount of particle size reduction. However, particle size reduction suffers beyond the maximal value of ball-to-powder weight ratio, especially in the later stages of mechanical alloying.
