The use of carbon fiber-reinforced composites is increasing today since they have an excellent weight-to-mechanical properties ratio. Traditional machining of this material is difficult. Abrasive water jet machining (AWJM) is an advanced non-traditional material removal process that can machine hard-to-cut materials. The process is widely used in aerospace, marine, and automotive industries. However, it encounters several challenges when cutting carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). The present work aims to study the characteristics of AWJM of CFRP laminates. Detailed experimental investigations are conducted to explore the effect of traverse feed and standoff distance (SOD) on top kerf width, bottom kerf width, kerf angle, profile area, volumetric removal rate, and the average surface roughness, and jet deviation factor. Repeatability tests are also used to assess the kerf dimensional accuracy and surface roughness tolerance achieved by AWJM of CFRP laminates. Results showed that the surface roughness increases along with the cut thickness, especially at large traverse feed and SOD. Both the kerf taper angle and the volumetric removal rate increase with traverse feed and SOD.

Multiple ecological tactics, like the ones described here, can be imitated to strongly affect these two components in the construction sector. This article provides an in-depth examination of the literature on biomimicry-based strategies intended to enhance building designs. This analysis is motivated by the rising need for energy legislation to achieve future local goals and provide a framework for use in Panama.These biomimicry-based methods have undergone more review and evaluation, and the incorporation of organism-based design for three of Panama's climate types has been proposed. Therefore, a SWOT analysis assisted in realizing the full potential that biomimicry-based techniques might have in raising the likelihood of satisfying local and international regulatory standards. In order to design constructions using biomimicry, multidisciplinary collaboration is required. This gives a competitive edge for better-trained human resources and expands horizons in the conventional construction industry. Finally, the analysis provided here might act as the preliminary step for the additional technical assessment using numerical and experimental procedures.

“…As a result, it has a significant impact on how surfaces are machined. Maximum abrasive jet pressure increases material removal rate, while minimum standoff distance (SOD) reduces kerf angle in woven carbon fibre composites [32]. Figure 5(c) also shows a picture of the CFRP test coupons that were cut from the CFRP laminate with a water jet.…”

Smart sensors patched to composite structures assist in the prediction of the mechanical behaviour of the structures. The present paper used finite element modelling and experimental procedures to conduct a detailed study on the response of composite laminate bonded with smart piezoelectric material. Fibre reinforced epoxy composite laminate was fabricated using the vacuum assisted resin transfer method. Test coupons in accordance with ASTM standards were prepared using high-speed and high-pressure abrasive water jet cutting. The mechanical properties of the composites were obtained through material characterization and the material properties were incorporated into the Finite element model. The layer-wise strain rate was computed with the ANSYS® Composite Prep Post module. A finite element model of a composite with piezoelectric sensor patch was created in ANSYS® APDL and harmonic analysis was conducted to determine the optimal frequency range for the applied load. An attempt was made to measure the strain by affixing lead zirconate titanate to a carbon fibre reinforced polymer laminate for cantilever configuration, and the LabVIEW® VI software module was integrated with the NI myDAQ system to detect the corresponding voltage for the excited frequency. The values of the generated voltage through numerical simulations were verified and validated using experimental counterparts.
