Mechanical and Physical Testing of Biocomposites, Fibre-Reinforced Composites and Hybrid CompositesAuthor(s): Mohammad Jawaid, Mohamed Thariq Hameed Sultan, Naheed Saba\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United Kingdom\nImprint: Woodhead Publishing Ltd\nISBN-13: 9780081022924, 978-0081022924\nSynopsis\nMechanical and Physical Testing of Biocomposites, Fibre-Reinforced Composites and Hybrid Composites covers key aspects of fracture and failure in natural/synthetic fiber reinforced polymer based composite materials, ranging from crack propagation, to crack growth, and from notch-size effect, to damage-tolerant design. Topics of interest include mechanical properties, such as tensile, flexural, compression, shear, impact, fracture toughness, low and high velocity impact, and anti-ballistic properties of natural fiber, synthetic fibers and hybrid composites materials. It also covers physical properties, such as density, water absorption, thickness swelling,.
