Study of the Mechanical & Sound Absorption Properties of Natural Fibre (Corn Husks) as Reinforced Composite

Recent years have shown that the increase in noise pollution have become a problem in developing countries. The dependency on fossil fuel products, primarily plastic products is also a concern as environmental awareness and the issues of sustainability is much more discussed. This research studies...
