Description
Summary:Fiber reinforced polymer composites offer extensive applications in many industries. Remarkably, the bio composites reinforced with hemp, kenaf, and flax are used in automobile applications such as transmission covers, seat-back trim, rear shelves, etc. Significantly, the uses of natural fibers are being increased in vibration-related applications due to their inherent damping characteristics. Thus, this article reviews the published works on the experimental characterization of free vibration properties including natural frequency and damping coefficient of single fiber and fiber-reinforced with hybrid composites. Furthermore, the factors influencing the damping behavior of biocomposites are discussed.
