Design and Experimental Analyses of Hybrid Piston Rods Used in Hydraulic Cylinders under Axial Load

Composite hydraulic cylinders are used to reduce the weight of construction equipment such as aerial work platforms or excavators. The weight is compensated by manufacturing hydraulic cylinders from Carbon Fiber Reinsforced Plastic (CFRP), but this is expensive. Therefore, this study investigated a...
