- An aligned and continuous glass fiber-reinforced epoxy composite consisting of 55 vol% glass fibers has a cross-sectional area of 420 mm2. The composite is subjected to a longitudinal load of 61,300 N. Calculate the magnitude of the stress on matrix phase if the elastic moduli of the glass fiber and the epoxy are 165 GPa and 5.7 GPa, respectively.arrow_forwardi need the answer quicklyarrow_forward1. An element of graphite-reinforced composite is completely dry and is constrained against any dimensional changes in the 1 and 2 directions, but it is free to expand in the 3 direction. The element absorbs 1.5% of its dry weight in the form of moisture. (a) What is the strain in the 3 direction as a result of the moisture absorption? Why is this strain different from the value given by B3AM? (b) What stresses develop in the element? Assume that moisture absorption does not influence the material properties.arrow_forward

Principle as such, ceramic materials such as zirconia or other alloys based on steel can even be used. In some cases, with a thermal barrier coating of blades to minimize exposure of Blade material to high temperatures it may also need to be coated. When selecting a material for the turbine blade and successfully in a turbine engine what design parameters do you consider for the coating that will work? Different parts of the engine are different please note that it is exposed to temperatures and not all blades are exposed to relatively high operating temperatures.
