Bending properties play a significant role in the forming of textile composites reinforcements,
particularly in determining the shape of wrinkles. The physics related to the bending of …

The use of composite materials reinforced by flax fibres has been increasing steadily over
the last 20 years. These fibres show attractive mechanical properties but also some …

Bioepoxy based monomers were formulated with a cure inhibitor and a cleavable amine to
obtain a recyclable epoxy system suitable for resin infusion at room temperature. Hybrid …

The new Aningeria altissima tannins extracted from ground bark were characterized by ATR-
FT MIR and MALDI-ToF spectrometry. The tannin extracts were found to contain flavonoids …

Fiber‐reinforced polymers are widely used in many applications where high specific
strength and high specific stiffness are required. Biocomposites have replaced synthetic …

Recycling carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) and recovering high-cost carbon fibre (CF)
is a preoccupation of scientific and industrial committees due to the environmental and …

This paper presents a microscopic numerical study on membrane clogging of prefabricated
vertical drain (PVD) installed in slurry when treated by vacuum preloading method. The …

In an attempt to increase biodiversity in natural plant fiber nonwovens, new sources of
natural fibers must be discovered. Nonwoven fabric is a promising commercial product for …

The preforming process of fiber fabrics in liquid composite molding presents remarkable
viscoelastic behaviors, and gives significant effect on the overall mechanical properties of …

Current reported works of preforming behaviors mainly focus on the fabrics without binder
and under constant process parameters. By contrast, in this work, preforming experiments …
