Mechanical Behavior of Hybrid Glass/Steel Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Composites

Mechanical Behavior of Hybrid Glass/Steel Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Composites

While conventional fiber-reinforced polymer composites offer high strength and stiffness, they lack ductility and the ability to absorb energy before failure. This work investigates hybrid fiber composites for structural applications comprised of polymer, steel fiber, and glass fibers to address thi...
