Fiber-metal laminates consisting of alternating metal and fiber-reinforced polymer layers have displayed remarkable performance in several engineering applications. This work aims to identify the feasibility of incorporating pineapple leaf fiber to partially supersede glass fiber in thermoplastic-ba...
