Popis: This work is devoted towards manufacturing a novel automated model for accurate assessment of mechanical properties of Fiber Glass Reinforced composites. A clear description of this model and its testing capabilities is provided. Main aim of this work is to provide unique testing techniques to measure the mechanical properties of composite rods containing epoxy resin reinforced with 0.55 of fiberglass by volume. Tension creep test was conducted at 0.29 of ultimate tensile strength at 60°C on 18 bar specimens soaked with different solutions for duration 3, 6 & 9 days. The solutions used in these tests were Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and Hydrochloric acid (HCI). The effect of vibration was introduced to the testing system via a centrifugal pump with a suitable flow rate to provide the required level of vibration. Samples were examined intermittently and Corresponding properties were determined.
