The Investigation of Mechanical Properties on Natural Fiber Composites for Recurve Bow Material Selection
Substitution of synthetic fiber composites with natural fiber in the applications such as automotive and construction are increasing. However, the usage of natural fibers in sports applications are still in its infancy stage. In this paper, the investigation of mechanical properties of the untreate...
