Effect of Natural Fiber Network on Permeability and Tensile Strength of Composites through Vacuum Infusion Process

This investigation is primarily focused to study the effect of fiber network on the permeability in vacuum infusion molding process. The unsaturated permeability of several natural fiber mats with different networks is measured. The experimental permeabilities are fitted by the Kozeny model and cont...
