| Abstract | ||
| This research investigates the mechanical behavior of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes reinforced with composite materials, including Boron/epoxy, Carbon/epoxy, and Glass/epoxy. The study examines the effects of reinforcement position (external, internal, and central) and fiber orientation on stress distribution under simulated load conditions. Using finite element analysis (FEA), the research aims to identify the most effective reinforcement strategy for enhancing the mechanical properties and performance of HDPE pipes. Comparative analysis of stress and displacement data across various configurations offers insights for optimizing the design and application of composite reinforcements in HDPE structures. | ||
