Mehmet Cihan

Thanks for the suggestion, it has useful info in it, however it is not exactly I am looking for. What I want to learn is how I can determine fibre volume fraction of a natural composite sample I have already manufactured.

BELOUADAH Zouheyr

Hi,

what is the nature of fiber that you used , short fibers or long fibers, rendomly or unidirectionnel , or .... ....

Bouchra Achour

BELOUADAH Zouheyr I have the same question as Mehmet Cihan , can you please tell me what method I would use to determine fiber volume fraction for (short Alfa fibers randomly added).
