TENSILE MODULUS OF LAMINATE COMPOSITES
Abstract
Abstract
The influence of Borax/SiC content on the tensile modulus of Carbon/epoxy and Kevlar/epoxy composites was analyzed using artificial neural network approach with six neuron in one hidden layer in this study. The correlation coefficient, R2, mean square error and mean absolute error was used to state the performance and error evaluation criteria of the proposed model/system. Borax and SiC ratios was changed between 0 and 10%. Addition of SiC caused to an increase on the tensile modulus of Carbon/epoxy and Kevlar/epoxy composites but Borax addition induced the decrease of it of these composites.
