Abstract

This project deals the Fabrication and Analysis of Graphite Epoxy glass fibre composites the composition of the selected glass fibre reinforced material used on the aircraft structures, space stations and space vehicles. There is an existing problem such as that glass fiber material which is used in an aircraft which is having problem with Mechanical properties of wear and thermal stresses used with other materials. The major advantage of the material is that by mixing graphite and Epoxy resin on propositions to the quantity of the Epoxy resin to the glass fiber material there is a capacity to withstand Mechanical Properties of wear and thermal stresses. Compared to other glass fiber material used in aircraft which increases reliability of the material. To solve the problems on the aircraft manufacturing industry on weight reduction of the aircraft, which increases the efficiency of the aircraft, decreases the fuel consumption. It is capable of withstanding regular types of loads, thermal stresses while in flight condition. It also withstands stresses at high levels compared to alloys and other composites.
