  Experimental Analysis of Mechanical Characteristics of Aluminium Matrix Hybrid Composite Using Seashell Powder And Coconut Shell Powder

  By Narendra Pothula, T.S.Krishna Kumar, B.Rajmohan, M.S.Srinivasa Rao

  Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the manufacturing processes and mechanical properties of composites made of marine shell powder, coconut shell powder, and aluminium. In our project, the MMC was made of aluminium with seashell powder and aluminium with coconut shell powder. A stir casting process fabricated the Composite. The composition of aluminium, seashell powder and coconut shell powder varies. According to the criteria established by the American …

  Mechanical Property Assessment of Hybrid Composite Laminates Composed of Jute Glass Fibers in Combination with Flax, Hemp, Sisal and Kenaf Fibers Using the Hand Layup Technique

  By Abdul Rehman, G.S. Lathkar, V. B. Suryawanshi, M. Zubairuddin

  Abstract: The present work compares the properties of various hybrid composite laminates manufactured using the hand layup technique and addresses their production process, based on glass fiber as the exterior layer and natural fibers (flax, hemp, kenaf, jute, and sisal) as interior layers, in an epoxy resin. Five stacking sequences A-GJJJJG, B-GFJJFG, C-GHJJHG, D-GKJJKG, and E-GJSSJG were used to prepare the test specimens. According to ASTM guidelines, experiments were performed to …
