during the last decades a new class of materials named fiber/metal laminates (fmls) was introduced. it is a hybrid composite consisting of alternating thin layers of metal sheets and fiber-reinforced composite material. fmls have both low weight and good mechanical properties. in this study, the impact behavior of this attractive material is investigated. the effect of fiber angle, stacking seq...

Optimizing the use of plantains depends not only on increasing its production but also improving post-harvest operations before it reaches final consumer. Proper management during period is better than using advanced technology. Themain objective this study to preserve in a traditional cold pot locality Man.
