This work presents a micromechanics-based model to predict the effective thermo-electro-elastic properties of a piezoelectric composite materials containing ellipsoidal multi-coated inhomogeneities. A finite element analysis is also performed for two-phase piezoelectric composite materials using ABA

Imperfect bonding between constituents is studied where displacements, electric and magnetic static potentials are considered to have a jump proportional to the normal component of the mechanical traction, electric displacement and magnetic flux. This condition may model various interface damages or
Actually, studies about the utilization of natural fibers as reinforcement in polymeric composites are increasing due to the improvements that fibers can provide to the product. In this work, chemical modification of the coconut fibers by alkaline treatment was studied in order to use them as reinfo
Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) which is rich in cellulose, relatively inexpensive, and abundantly available has the potential for polymer reinforcement. The present study investigated the tensile, flexural, and impact behavior of PALF-reinforced polyester composites as a function of fiber loading, fibe
