Effect of thread material and stitch orientation on tensile mechanical property of stitched oil palm empty fruit bunch fiber reinforced epoxy composites

Short random fibers do not have the desired mechanical performance as continuous fibers, but this weakness may be overcome by applying methods that make up for their deficiency. Stitching is one of the methods that have been proven to be an effective reinforcement for through-thickness (out-of-plane...
