“…Glass fiber/epoxy composite specimens prepared by vacuum bagging technique exhibited better natural frequency because of the good volume fraction of fibers. [37,38] Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of the addition of recycled glass fiber along with new glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites on the mechanical properties of various fiber volume fractions and to establish the optimum volume fraction. The experimental value has been compared with existing theoretical models.…”

The fiber industry develops materials with good physical and mechanical characteristics, but it also generates a lot of waste that is difficult to degrade. Glass fibers can be extracted from waste glass fiber reinforced polymers because of advancements in grinding and sorting technologies. The objective of the current paper is to use waste glass fiber along with new woven glass fiber mat in structural application. Composites were manufactured using the hand layup method using virgin and discorded woven glass fibermats with different fiber weight fractions such as 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Composites were then investigated for the influence of the recycled fiber on mechanical and vibration behavior using appropriate tests. Theoretical models were used to predict the mechanical behavior of the composites. Scanning electron microscopic technique was used to analyze the failure surface morphology of the composite specimen. Results portrayed that the composites with 40 wt% of new woven glass fiber mats exhibited better mechanical strength (tensile and flexural strengths and modules of 243 MPa, 1752 MPa, and 1244 MPa, 946 MPa, impact strength of 12.13 J). The combined effect of new and recycled glass fiber composites exhibited tensile and flexural strength of 211 MPa and 1734 MPa, modulus of 1222 MPa and 925.7 MPa, impact strength of 10.43 J. The natural frequency of both composites was very close to all other volume fractions. The theoretical model also ended up with the same result and the margin of difference between predicted results and experimental results was very minimum.

To our knowledge, assessment of striate keratopathy (SK) is subjectively done with slit-lamp bio-microscopic examination, which is the most common practice. In this manuscript, we have reported the role of objective scheimpflug imaging modality, in decoding the healing and repair process of SK, post prolonged cataract surgery. The quantitative and qualitative framing of this pathology with hyperreflective and hyporeflective hot spots (optical blooming) has never been reported in the literature before. In addition to the imaging of the cascadic events of SK in default colour, the role of digital calipers in the measurement of corneal thickness in SK (in inverse colour) is also highlighted. This manuscript throws light on the unique features of scheimpflug imaging technology, for the possible consideration of it as a routine post-operative investigation in patients undergoing prolonged or complicated cataract surgery, in quantifying their SK.
