Banana Fibers – Variability and Fracture Behaviour

Banana fibers obtained from the stem of banana plant (Musa sapientum) have been characterised for their diameter variability and their mechanical properties, with a stress on fracture morphology. The nature of representative stress strain curves and fracture at different strain rates have been analy...
