Keywords:
Orthogonal array, mechanical properties, Hand layup technique.
Abstract
The current work focuses on investigating mechanical properties of novel material by considering three levels and three process parameters as input for developing orthogonal array. Based on orthogonal L9 array, nine different samples were fabricated by hand layup technique and vacuum bagged. The samples were tested for tensile and hardness. This experimental data is input for minitab software to perform statistical analysis. By considering the best composition further investigations were conducted by replacing basalt with E-glass to compare. Mechanical properties were evaluated like flexural in addition to tensile and hardness, and found which material is supporting high to increase the strength of jute fiber.
