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 …

Design Simulation and Assessment of Image De-noising through Improved Median Filters Based Sub band Decomposition
Abstract: The quality of an image sequence can degrade due to a number of causes, such as noise in the recording, transmission, or scanning. Additionally to enhancing the visual appeal, filtering offers the advantage of facilitating subsequent image processing tasks like coding, interpretation, or analysis. While attempting to restore a perfect image from a faulty copy, noise reduction is a top concern. Because of this, there isn't a single strategy that …

BUCKLING ANALYSIS OF COMPOSITE CYLINDRICAL SHELL STRUCTURE USING FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS
Abstract: When designing cylindrical shells one should consider not only the strength problem in service, but also the buckling problem. Cylindrical shells such as thin-walled structures are susceptible to buckling when subjected to static and dynamic stresses. The vessels are exposed to dynamic sea conditions depending on their usage. The functional failure of a pressurized composite vessel or a composite pipe in the form of leakage or weeping of the contained …
