The Role of Surface Treatments on Mechanical and Interfacial Shear Strength of Pineapple Leaf Fibers
Abstract: Natural fibers are seen as having potential application as reinforcing agents in polymer composite materials due to their main advantages, which include moderate strength and stiffness, low cost, and being an environmentally beneficial, degradable, and renewable material. They are susceptible to absorbing moisture because of their innate hydrophilicity, which can weaken or plasticize the adherence of the fibers to the surrounding matrix and impact the performance of composite materials employed …

Improved TOPSIS for Al-SiC Composite Material Selection
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel Multi-Criteria Decision-Making(MCDM) method for attaining accurate and reliable results on Al-SiC composite material selection. Many of the existing researches suggested some methods for determining weights for criteria objectively and dealt with various mathematical models for eliminating inter-criteria correlation. However, they still involve some considerable shortcomings not fitting in the reality. In this paper, in order to determine the weights of criteria, methods for both subjective …

The Transient Response and Frequency Characteristics of Power Transformers having Non-uniform Winding Insulation
Abstract: This paper presents a Laplace-domain distributed-parameter technique for analyzing the transient and frequency response of power transformers having non-uniform winding insulation. Stronger winding insulation near the windings source side terminals is usually applied in order to mitigate the concentration of the transient voltage stresses close to these locations. This will result in a location-dependent inter-turn capacitance distribution. The suggested procedure for analyzing such windings is based on the cascade connection …
