Flexural and Impact Properties of Bamboo-Aluminum Sandwich Composites

Article Preview

Abstract:

Investigations have been conducted on the mechanical properties of bamboo-aluminum sandwich composites prototype fabricated in laboratory. Mechanical properties studied were flexural properties and impact properties. The failure mode related to each mechanical property was also observed and reported in this study.
