Abstract:This work presents an alternative to studying and determining the torsion modulus, G, in composites. For this purpose, we use a measuring system with a rotation motion sensor coupled with a torsion pendulum that allows for determining the angular position as a function of the time. Then, through an equation derived from mechanical spectroscopy studies that permits the calculation of G's value, the experiments focus on samples of different quantities of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) in unsaturated polyester resin… Show more
