“…In these fields, materials with improved mechanical properties are preferred, and synthetic fillers have some advantages, such as mechanical property improvements, over natural fillers. Various synthetic fillers, such as silicon carbide (SiC) [78][79][80], aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) [80][81][82], zinc oxide (ZnO) [83,84], magnesium oxide (MgO) [85][86][87], graphite (although graphite is found in two types of natural and synthetic) [88,89], zeolite [90][91][92], etc., which have been added to polymers. These synthetic fillers are rigid in nature, and they improve the mechanical properties of the final polymer composites as well as reduce the cost of composites [89,93].…”

Statistics reveal that egg production has increased in recent decades. This growth suggests there is a global rise in available eggshell biomass due to the current underutilization of this bio-waste material. A number of different applications for waste eggshells (WEGs) are known, that include their use as an additive in human/animal food, soil amendment, cosmetics, catalyst, sorbent, and filler in polymer composites. In this article, worldwide egg production and leading countries are examined, in addition to a discussion of the various applications of eggshell biomass. Eggshells are a rich supplement of calcium carbonate; therefore, they can be added as a particulate filler to polymer composites. In turn, the addition of a lower-cost filler, such as eggshell or calcium carbonate, can reduce overall material fabrication costs. Polylactic acid (PLA) is currently a high-demand biopolymer, where the fabrication of PLA composites has gained increasing attention due to its eco-friendly properties. In this review, PLA composites that contain calcium carbonate or eggshells are emphasized, and the mechanical properties of the composites (e.g., tensile strength, flexural strength, tensile elastic modulus, flexural modulus, and elongation (%) at break) are investigated. The results from this review reveal that the addition of eggshell/calcium carbonate to PLA reduces the tensile and flexural strength of PLA composites, whereas an increase in the tensile and flexural modulus, and elongation (%) at break of composites are described herein.

“…In this research, ANOVA used to analyze the influence of fiber volume fraction, filler and type of fiber on the mechanical properties and density of composite material plates. In the analysis, to measure the corresponding effects on the quality characteristics, use the percentage distributions of each control parameter [27]. Table 9, present the mechanical properties and density results using ANOVA analysis.…”

The main objective of this research is to design and select a composite plate to be used in fabricating wing skins of light unman air vehicle (UAV). The mechanical properties, weight and cost are the basis criteria of this selection. The fiber volume fraction, fillers and type of fiber with three levels for each were considered to optimize the composite plate selection. Finite element method was used to investigate the stress distribution on the wing at cruise flight condition in addition to estimate the maximum stress. An experiments plan has been designed to get the data on the basis of Taguchi technique. The most effective parameters at the process to be find out by employing L9 (33) orthogonal array, signal to noise ratio (S/N), main effect and analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results show that, the experimental and the predicted results are very close. It was found that the type of fiber is the most effective parameter on the plate selection, followed by filler content and then the fiber volume fraction. The best parameters combinations are ((E-glass woven roving + unidirectional carbon) fiber, 7.5% graphite filler and 30% fiber volume fraction). This combination provides good mechanical properties, high safety factor, acceptable cost, and offers weight savings on average by 40% percent as compared to aluminum alloy.

“…Everyday occurrences like objects falling on a composite casing, cars colliding at low speeds, boulders striking a vehicle's composite bodywork, and ballistic strikes on military aircraft all result in collisions at low velocities. Biswas et al [4] studied the effects of lowvelocity impact on composite sandwich panels made with a honeycomb core sandwiched between glass fibre-reinforced face sheets. The dynamic response of the panel was studied by Chauhan et al [5] by monitoring strain at a specific place on the panel when the panel was exposed to an impact force (both experimentally and numerically).…”

“…The literature review shows that the research [4][5][6] investigates the behaviour of a composite plate under dynamic load, while researchers [7][8][9] demonstrate the effect of filler on the behaviour of composite material using the Taguchi technique. In this research, the authors study the influence of filler on the dynamic response of composite plates using the Taguchi technique.…”

The deflection and deformation behaviour of a 30% weight fraction glass-polyester sandwich panel was studied as a function of graphite filler quantity and impact velocity. Experiments based on Taguchi methods were carried out in order to collect data systematically. The panel is fastened on three sides and left free for the destructive test. By applying the impact force. The vibration data collector is used to measure the deflection (TVC 200). During the destructive test, the panel is additionally fastened to a solid base for stability. The steel hammer came crashing down from above. A Vernier calliper is used to measure the distortion. The tests were planned using Taguchi's L9 orthogonal array method. Examine the effects of impact force, height, and graphite filler content on low-velocity deflections and deformations using analysis of variance. The findings demonstrate that the mass is the primary parameter influencing the deflection, whereas the graphite filler is the primary parameter influencing the deformation. As a last step, a confirmation tests have been run to make sure the predicted experimental outcomes from those correlations were correct.
