Composites are modern materials which are currently used in almost all areas of technology. Because of the versatile behaviour of composites, analysis of composites is required to be done. In this work a unidirectional epoxy-carbon fiber reinforced composite was subjected to tensile load. While loading, the electrical resistance measurement is done using Kelvin’s four-wire method. Electrical contacts were made by epoxy-silver adhesive on the specimen. Connecting wires were attached with the epoxy-silver adhesive. The results obtained during tensile test were analysed to study the mechanical and electrical behaviour of the composite and their correlation which could be helpful in predicting the performance of composite materials. © 2019, International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research.

Examination Of Electrical Behaviour Of Unidirectional Epoxy-Carbon Fiber Composite Under Tensile Load By Experimental Method

This study is done by the company Whirlpool of India Limited, situated at Ranjangaon MIDC, Pune. The company is facing the pr oblem regarding to packaging system. In December 2018, 265 Litre Whirlpool refrigerator product was found in damaged condition at e-commerce company amazon’s ware house. Dents were found on the door and outer wrapper of refrigerator. Also EPS protection were found in damage condition. Hence, this product has been blocked for selling by amazon Company. Also amazon is demanding for ISTA certification of above mentioned product for further selling process. After root cause analysis it is clear that EPS currently used is failing to absorb energy dissipated during impact. So, it is needed to select EPS (thermocol) with more strength, energy absorption capacity and cushioning effect and changes in packaging protection post. Strength of the EPS is mainly function of granular size, density, heating temperature and pressure of the steam. Mechanical properties of existing and new material will be compared after carrying out tensile test and compressive test as per ASTM standards. FEM analysis for structural testing has been done in ANSYS Workbench. © 2019, International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research. All rights reserved.

Design, analysis and selection of shock absorbing eps foam packaging material

The projects aims at replacing the conventionaldrive shaft with composite drive shaft which will provide usthe better mechanical properties i.e (Torque transmittingcapacity, and fatigue life of the shaft).The research paper willinclude the comparison of these properties of conventionalsteel shaft with the composite drive shaft .The drive shaftselected is applicable to TATA 407 pick up vehicle which is atpresent using the conventional steel drive shaft. Our main aimis to show that the fatigue life of composite drive shaft is muchbetter than conventional steel drive shaft.
