摘要
A detailed comparative examination of the Weibull and Gaussian statistical methods is offered to analyze the mechanical properties of natural date palm fibers.Tensile tests were conducted on 35 fiber samples using a universal testing machine to gather data on stress,strain,and Youngs modulus.This data was then analyzed through both statistical approaches to evaluate their ability to model important mechanical characteristics,including tensile strength,strain at break,and Youngs modulus.The study identifies the strengths and weaknesses of each statistical method when it is applied to natural fibers,emphasizing their suitability for modeling different mechanical properties.The results of this analysis provide important insights that can guide the selection of the most appropriate statistical method,depending on the type of mechanical property being studied and the specific characteristics of the data.This research makes significant contributions to advancing the understanding of natural fiber mechanics and improving the methods used for their characterization.
