Description & Coverage
Description:

The huge consumption of earth’s natural resources and the reliance on industrial manufactured products have produced significant impacts on the environment. As such, new strategies must be adopted in order to support the protection and continued development of numerous natural resources.

Mechanical Properties of Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymers: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a critical scholarly resource that examines green energy sources and material enhancements that will help to solve ecological problems. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics, such as harvesting techniques, origins of natural fibers, and modeling for textile composites, this book is geared towards engineers, researchers, scholars, and graduate students in the fields of materials science and engineering.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Analytical Modeling
  • Chemical Properties
  • Composite Materials Types and Applications
  • Green Composites
  • Harvesting Techniques
  • Modeling for Textile Composites
  • Origins of Natural Fibers
