Rice straw is an agricultural waste, disposal of which through open burning is an emerging
challenge for the ecology, especially in under developed countries. Green composites …

This paper investigates the impact dynamics of thin semicylindrical woven composite
laminate shells, with a particular focus on understanding the influence of thickness. Utilizing …

Nowadays, composite materials are increasingly used in the most diverse areas of
engineering, where non-planar geometries begin to be quite frequent. However, the existing …

This paper presents an efficient and reliable approach to study the low-velocity impact
response of woven composite shells using 3D finite element models that account for the …

Composite laminates have been used in the most diverse engineering fields, in which they
are often subject to multi-impacts. Typical examples of these phenomena are found in the …

This study compares the degradation process of unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) and vinyl
ester resin (VER) and their biocomposites with kraft lignin. In order to study their …

As it is known, production of polymer concrete contemplates polymer resins as main
component, for example polyester or epoxy; as well as mineral aggregates, including silica …

Polybenzoxazines attract much attention as good phenolic resins due to their interesting and
useful properties. Recently, benzoxazine monomers have been employed as crosslinking …

Unsaturated polyester resin (UPR), which was first commercially produced in the 1940s, is
the most suitable thermoset having industrial importance and economic potential. The …

Due to the increasing amount of plastic waste generated year after year, it is necessary to
take measures to control this waste and prevent it from accumulating and damaging the …
