Abstract

The vibration frequencies of plant fibre (Luffa cylindrical sponge) reinforced composite structure has been studied in this article Initially, a simulation model of Luffa fibre reinforced polymer composite plate has been developed through the commercial finite element analysis package. Further, the finite element frequency solutions are compared with own experimental frequency data (recorded using the in-house fabricated Luffa fiber composite) for the validation purpose. The current analysis mainly performed on two composite plate fabricated using the different weight of fibre (no fibre and 6.4%). Moreover, the simulation frequencies are computed using the experimental elastic properties of Luffa fibre polymer composite plate. After the necessary verification, the simulation model has been extended to explore the influence of various structural parameters on the free vibration frequency.
