Abstract
Abstract Additive manufacturing (AM) is a cost-effective method for fabricating structurally sound components. Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is a popular AM technique known for its design flexibility, minimal material wastage, and recyclability. Poly lactic acid (PLA) is a thermoplastic widely used in aerospace, biomedical, and automobile industries. Wood-PLA, incorporating wood fillers into PLA, finds applications in several industries. This research explores multilayered materials (MLM) for enhanced performance in various sectors such as aircraft, energy, and biomedical. Mechanical properties of MLM were investigated under different load conditions (tensile, bend, compressive). Properties simulated through Finite Element Method (FEM) showed minimal error (less than 1 %). Microscopic analysis, aided by scanning electron microscope (SEM) fractography, reveals a brittle mode of failure in the specimens. This study provides valuable insights into the mechanical behaviour of MLM, offering potential applications in diverse industries.
