Fiber Reinforced Composites (FRCs), due to their intrinsic heterogeneity, are generally affected by complex multi-scale failure mechanisms leading to the formation of matrix cracks that are difficult to detect and repair. FRCs with the ability to heal and ...
Fracture of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) is dominated by large scale fiber bridging which acts as a very important toughening mechanism. The objective of this paper is to investigate the intralaminar Mode I fracture in a unidirectional CFRP com ...
The thermal bridges constitute critical regions in building envelopes and they are created due to the interruption of the insulation layer. One of the many structural thermal bridges in building envelopes is created in balcony junctions because of the requ ...
Structures made of FRP composites have been shown to provide efficient and economical applications in bridges and piers. They are being increasingly used due to their several advantages when compared to traditional materials, namely, the lightness, strengt ...
This paper investigates an innovative bonded sleeve connection for joining tubular GFRP and steel members. Experimental results focused on mechanical responses of beam-to-column specimens using bonded sleeve connections and conventional steel angle connect ...
In the building sector, the contribution of concrete structure to the overall emissions of greenhouse gases is significant. Switzerland is engaged in a 2050 energy strategy where the reduction of the embodied energy of buildings is a key aspect. In this st ...
Glass fiber reinforced composites with a self-healing, supramolecular hybrid network matrix were produced using a modified vacuum assisted resin infusion moulding process adapted to high temperature processing. The quality and fiber volume fraction (50%) o ...
Composite materials and, in particular, Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) have been well studied and developed in the past years due to their advanced mechanical characteristics. These materials are used in several different application fields, such ...
Replacing the gel-like central part of the intervertebral disc (IVD), so-called nucleus pulposus (NP), via a minimally invasive surgery is one of the most recent approaches in the lower back pain treatments. An appropriate biomaterial for NP replacement (N ...
This paper presents an experimental and analytical study about the effect of temperature on the flexural creep of GFRP laminates produced by vacuum infusion. Such laminates are considered for use in the faces of sandwich panels for building floor applicati ...
