Continuous-fiber ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are of interest as hot-section components in gas turbine engines due to their refractoriness and low density relative to metallic alloys. In service, CMCs will be subjected to spatially inhomogeneous temper ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich structures offer several advantages compared to structures made of traditional materials, such as high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, low thermal conductivity and rapid component installation. In this ...
In order to optimize the load-bearing behavior of sandwich structures and adapt it to specific requirements, their core may be composed of layers of different materials with tailored properties. These layers may consist not only of soft foam or honeycomb m ...
The addition of a thin overlay of Ultra-High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) to Reinforced Concrete (RC) members is an emerging technique to strengthen and protect existing structures and to design durable new structures. Combining UHPFRC wi ...
A model for predicting the buckling and wrinkling behavior of glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates and sandwich panels subjected to in-plane biaxial compression-tension loading is presented in this paper. In-plane biaxial compression-tension loadin ...
Ultra High-Performance Fibre-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) combines high strength, deformation capacity and low permeability. This makes UHPFRC particularly suitable as a strengthening and protective layer for application to existing reinforced concrete str ...
The behaviour of brittle matrix fibre reinforced-composites is dependent of the properties of its constituents (fibre, matrix and fibre-matrix interface) and is affected by the mechanical and environmental loads. The fracture of a unidirectional composite ...
A comprehensive understanding of the development of residual strains in composite processing is essential to manufacture high quality composite parts. In this paper, the use of fibre Bragg grating (FBG) optical sensors was investigated to measure in situ t ...
Based on current fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite construction principles, FRP decks fall into two categories: pultruded decks and sandwich decks. Sandwich decks comprise face sheets and either honeycombs or foams reinforced with internal FRP webs ...
This paper presents experimental and analytical investigations about the creep behaviour of sandwich panels comprising glass-fibre reinforced polymer faces and rigid polyurethane foam core for civil engineering applications. A full-scale sandwich panel was ...
