A model for predicting composite material strength degradation under elevated and high temperatures is proposed. This model is based on the morphology of the mixture of materials in different states. The degradation of resin-dominated shear strength can be ...
We present an analytical micromechanical model designed to simulate the tensile stress-strain behaviour and failure of damaging composites containing a high volume fraction of reinforcing particles. One internal damage micromechanism is considered, namely ...
The fatigue response of adhesively-bonded pultruded GFRP double-lap joints has been investigated under different environmental conditions. Tests were performed at -35 °C, 23 °C and 40 °C. A fourth set of fatigue data was collected from tests on preconditio ...
The tensile strength and ductility of fiber-reinforced composites containing ductile metal fibers is studied using a multiscale approach and compared to the performance of an identical composite containing elastic fibers. A finite element model of stress r ...
This study contributes to our understanding of the damage evolution and fracture behaviour of two-phase materials that combine brittle particles with a ductile matrix. We focus on model composites roughly half-ceramic/half-metal that are produced in-house ...
The constant improvement of polymer composite materials has allowed their integration in many industrial fields where their mechanical and chemical properties are apparently attractive. Mixed metal-composite insulators are now increasingly used for high vo ...
Desiccation cracking of soils is of great importance in geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering. In many circumstances it is the cause of damages in earthen and soil supported structures. Desiccation cracking affects clayey soil barriers for waste st ...
Adhesively bonded joints are being used increasingly in civil engineering structures, especially for joints comprising pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates. The layered material architecture, however, leads to a complex delamination fa ...
Internal damage in uniaxial continuous alumina fibre-reinforced aluminium is measured by acoustic emission during tensile straining in the fibre direction. Over most of the loading history spatially uncorrelated fibre fragmentation occurs, consistent with ...
The effect of wood fiber anisotropy and their geometrical features on wood fiber composite stiffness is analyzed. An analytical model for an N-phase composite with orthotropic properties of constituents is developed and used. This model is a straightforwar ...
