Description: This award is for support of a cooperative project by Dr. Sabit Adanur, Associate Professor, Department of Textile Engineering at Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama, and Dr. Samy E. Shalaby of the Textile Research Division in the National Research Center in Cairo, Egypt. The two scientists plan to design, fabricate, test and analyze stitch bonded laminar thermoplastic composites. The research will address the disadvantages of currently available composites including high cost and lack of well-defined design and manufacturing rules. Thermoplastic material use is increasing as the principal matrix material for composites due to many advantages. The research will involve traditional and high performance thermoplastic matrix materials. The recycling of composites will be investigated and the mechanical properties of the resulting second-generation materials will be analyzed. Failure mechanisms, damage resistance and tolerance of thermoplastic composite materials, and the effects of field conditions on laminar composite structures will be investigated and the mechanistic models will be developed. Scope: This award will allow collaboration between Egyptian and US scientists who have significant technical background and expertise to carry out the proposed research. The US scientist will develop the stitching method and textile preform structures. The Egyptian scientist will improve the interface between resin and reinforcement material. Chemical analysis and testing will be done in Egypt and mechanical testing will be done in the United States. This research project will help the US composite manufacturing companies to diversify into civilian applications. It will help the private Egyptian textile companies to participate in the design, development and manufacture of textile structural composites. This proposal meets the INT objective of increasing US-foreign collaboration in areas that benefit both sides. This project is being supported under the US-Egypt Joint Fund Program, which provides grants to scientists and engineers in both countries to carry out these cooperative activities.

描述：该奖项是为了支持阿拉巴马州奥本大学纺织工程系副教授Sabit Adanur博士和位于阿拉巴马州奥本大学的副教授，以及位于国家研究中心的纺织研究部的Samy E. Shalaby博士开罗，埃及。 两位科学家计划设计，制造，测试和分析针迹结合的层状热塑性复合材料。 这项研究将解决当前可用复合材料的缺点，包括高成本和缺乏定义明确的设计和制造规则。 由于许多优势，热塑性材料的使用正在作为复合材料的主要基质材料增加。 该研究将涉及传统和高性能热塑性矩阵材料。 将研究复合材料的回收，并将分析所得第二代材料的机械性能。 将研究热塑性复合材料的破坏机制，抗损伤和耐受性，以及现场条件对层流复合结构的影响，并将开发机械模型。 范围：该奖项将允许具有重要技术背景和专业知识的埃及和美国科学家之间的合作，以进行拟议的研究。 美国科学家将开发缝合方法和纺织品预成型结构。 埃及科学家将改善树脂和加固材料之间的界面。 化学分析和测试将在埃及进行，并将在美国进行机械测试。 该研究项目将帮助美国复合制造公司多样化为平民应用。 它将帮助私人埃及纺织公司参与纺织结构复合材料的设计，开发和制造。 该提案达到了在受益于双方的领域中增加美国外国合作的INT目标。 该项目得到了美国埃及联合基金计划的支持，该计划为两国的科学家和工程师提供了这些合作活动的赠款。
