Crashworthiness characteristics of carbon jute glass reinforced epoxy composite circular tubes
(
John Wiley and SonsInc.
, 2018 , Article)
This article provides an experimental investigation into the crashworthiness of carbon jute glass reinforced epoxy circular composite tubes. The test specimens were fabricated of 6 layers with different stacking sequence ...
Crushing behavior of hybrid hexagonal/octagonal cellular composite system: All made of carbon fiber reinforced epoxy
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
Cellular carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites, either unfilled or filled with foam, may be of interest for energy absorption application due to their improved crashworthiness. In the current paper, new ...
Crushing behavior of hybrid hexagonal/octagonal cellular composite system: Aramid/carbon hybrid composite
(
Elsevier, Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
In the current paper a series of experiments were conducted to assess the crashworthiness of cellular hexagonal/octagonal composite device. Each device composed of 6 cells of carbon fiber reinforced composite (CFRP). ...
Using thin-plies to improve the damage resistance and tolerance of aeronautical CFRP composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Thin-ply composites are currently receiving specific attention from researchers due to their capabilities to delay matrix cracking. In this paper, the aim is to design a hybrid laminate that contains both thin- and normal ...
Filler strengthening of foam-filled energy absorption devices using CFRP beams
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
The crashworthiness of fiber reinforced plastics (FRP) is attracting more interest as they are currently contributing to several industries. In the present study, internally strengthened foam-filled rectangular carbon fiber ...
Crushing behavior of a unit cell of CFRP lattice core for sandwich structures’ application
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Sandwich structures made of composites are designed mainly for higher and efficient load capacity. Mostly, the use of composite materials in lattice core sandwich structures is limited to the face sheet; whereas, the core ...
An experimental investigation into crushing behavior of radially stiffened GFRP composite tubes
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
State-of-the-art studies of the crushing of composite tubes reveal different factors affecting their crashworthiness. Of those factors, the geometrical property of the tube is of great interest. In the current study, four ...
