DECIPHERING FRICTION: UNDERSTANDING INTERFACIAL BEHAVIOR IN FIBER-REINFORCED POLYMER COMPOSITES
Vikas Shankar , Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Nimra College of Engineering and Technology Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, IndiaAbstract
Article delves into the intricate interplay of friction in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, focusing on elucidating interfacial behavior. This study investigates the complex interactions between fibers and polymer matrices, exploring the factors influencing frictional properties at the interface. Through theoretical modeling, experimental analysis, and computational simulations, the research aims to unravel the underlying mechanisms governing friction in FRP composites. By gaining insights into interfacial behavior, this study contributes to enhancing the design, performance, and durability of FRP materials across various applications.
