Fibers, Volume 8, Issue 1

January 2020 - 7 articles

Cover Story: Data analysis serving advanced characterization is now emerging for material design, quality assurance, and replacing conventional trial and error. Here, the effect of modification of carbon fibers was examined and correlated to three ontological subclasses of reinforcement, revealing structure–property relations using machine learning.
