  1. 1. MECHANICAL PROPERTIES AND TESTING OF A HYBRID COMPOSITE MATERIAL

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : ARJUN ANIL; JEEVAN JOSEPH; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A composite is a structural material that consists of two or more combined constituents at amacroscopic level and are not soluble in each other. One constituent is called the reinforcingphase and the other in which it is embedded is called the matrix. The reinforcing phasematerial may be in the form of fibres, particles, or flakes to name a few. READ MORE
