Abstract
Pineapple leaves are natural fibres with good mechanical properties which are used as the reinforcing phase in natural fibre-based composites. Composites in general sustain a variety of vibrations during their service. This investigation puts forward the modal analysis of pineapple fibre reinforced epoxy composites. The variation of fibre volume fraction has also been studied to see the effect on the mechanical properties. The elastic properties have been determined analytically, while the frequency studies have been made with the aid of finite element modelling. It was observed that volume fraction and aspect played significant effect on the frequency. Lower frequency can cause more fatigue damage to the composite.
