The use of natural fiber-based composites is on the rise in many industries. Thanks to their eco-sustainability, these innovative materials make it possible adapt production components, systems and machines increasingly stringent regulations environmental protection, while at same time reducing costs, weight operating costs. Optimizing mechanical properties biocomposites an important goal applied research. In this work, using a new numerical approach, effects volume fraction, average length,...
In recent decades, in order to replace traditional synthetic polymer composites, engineering research has focused on the development of new alternatives such as green biocomposites constituted by an eco-sustainable matrix reinforced natural fibers. Such innovative are divided into two different typologies: random short fiber characterized low mechanical strength, used for non-structural applications covering panels, etc., and high-performance long fibers that can be semi-structural...
Biocomposites are increasingly used in the industry for replacement of synthetic materials, thanks to their good mechanical properties, being lightweight, and having low cost. Unfortunately, several potential fields structural application static strength fatigue life not high enough. For this reason, chemical treatments on fibers have been proposed literature, although still without fully satisfactory results. To overcome drawback, study we present a procedure based addition carbonaceous...
The increasing attention given to environmental protection, largely through specific regulations on impact and the recycling of materials, has led a considerable interest researchers in biocomposites, materials consisting bio-based or green polymer matrixes reinforced by natural fibers. Among various reinforcing fibers, sisal fibers are particularly promising for their good mechanical properties, low weight wide availability current market. As proven literature authors, hybridization...
The impact behavior of a carbon-Kevlar hybrid composite, widely used in sport car manufacturing, was evaluated. To highlight the hybridization effect, comparative analyses were performed with basic CFRP laminate having same lay-up. Tensile, bending and low velocity tests, followed by nondestructive inspections, highlighted that Kevlar first lamina leads to an increment specific strength, up 55%. assess most reliable technique detect damage, evaluation pulsed thermography, phased array...
Within the range of composite laminates for structural applications, sandwich are a special category intended applications characterized by high flexural stresses. As it is well known from technical literature, have simple configuration consisting two skins very strong material, to which strength delegated, between an inner layer (core) light material with sufficient shear interposed. example, widely used in civil, naval, and mechanical engineering that obtained fiberglass core various...
In the last years, artificial intelligence (AI) in clinical decision support systems (CDSS) played a key role harnessing machine learning and deep architectures. Despite their promising capabilities, lack of transparency explainability AI models poses significant challenges, particularly medical contexts where reliability is mandatory aspect. Achieving without compromising predictive accuracy remains challenge. This paper presents novel method, namely Rad4XCNN, to enhance power CNN-derived...
