ABSTRACT
In this work, a hybrid layered natural composite made of banana and Bristol coir is constructed using a hand layup process, and the mechanical characteristics are investigated using numerical analysis, Finite Element Analysis, and experimental investigation. The mechanical properties of the proposed hybrid natural composite were numerically evaluated using an excel sheet, and the tensile and flexural strength results were derived by FEM analysis utilising. Tensile and flammability tests are carried out, and the experimental findings are reported. When the numerical analysis findings are compared to the experimental test results, it is found that the divergence between the result is very close percentage for all produced laminates.
