EFFECTS OF CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL CHANGES CAUSED BY TEMPERATURE AND GRAIN SIZE ON MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS (CASE-STUDY: BAMBOO WOOD)

摘要

This paper studying and analyze the effects of changing the chemical and physical properties on the mechanical behavior of composite parts composing such materials especially composites woods like bamboo wood. Any chemical or physical change of the elements composing any composite material will lead to a change in its mechanical properties and so a new application of such materials will be created. The modulus of indentation (E_(IT)), the elastic index (η_(IT)), also the Hardness index (Martens index) (H_M) and the creep factor of indentation (C_(IT)) are evaluated due to the change in chemical or physical values.
