Experimental Investigation of Hybrid Natural Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Composites Using Banana and Sugar Palm Fibers
Abstract: This paper is a research study that examines the mechanical and morphological properties of hybrid natural fiber reinforced epoxy composites manufactured from banana fibers (BF) and sugar palm fibers (SPF). Because the use of sustainable, lightweight, and cost effective materials in engineering continues to grow, many engineers are looking at the possibility of utilizing natural fiber reinforced polymer composites as alternatives to traditional man-made fiber composites. Hybrid composite laminate samples …

Effect of Carbon Fiber on Mechanical Properties and Corrosion Behavior of Aluminium-6061 for Aerospace Applications
Abstract: Composite materials have brought about a revolution in numerous industries due to their superior mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. As a result, composites have emerged as a promising class of materials. In the present experimental study, we will compare sandwiched composite panels made from aluminum 6061 alloy and aluminum-carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) with varying load-carrying capacities in terms of their mechanical properties and corrosion behavior. These specimens are prepared using …
