The importance of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) as a material used for civil engineering purposes has grown in the last decade. Especially the introduction of pultrusion at an industrial level as a way to produce big batches of FRP made it possible to o ...
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites offer several advantages in relation to traditional materials, such as high specific strength, good corrosion resistance, low thermal conductivity and rapid component installation. Despite the great potential of th ...
A multiscale approach to composite failure, in which detailed information on small-scale micromechanics is incorporated approximately yet accurately into larger-scale models capable of simulating extensive damage evolution and ultimate failure, is applied ...
Voids are often present in composite materials and have, as may be expected, negative effects on the mechanical properties. As a consequence, it is regarded to be important to optimise manufacturing techniques of composite materials towards minimum void co ...
The integration of shear-thickening fluids (STFs) into composite structures has been investigated with the aim of tuning part stiffness and damping capacity under dynamic deformation. Results from oscillatory rheological measurements for a STF based on con ...
This paper investigates the flat-wise compression behavior of an innovative cellular structure configuration. The considered layout has a hexagonal chiral geometry featuring cylinders, or nodes, joined by ligaments, or ribs. The resulting assembly is chara ...
In this paper, we use the established cohesive element method to investigate the probabilistic failure of a model ceramic system under dynamic tensile loading. Monte-Carlo simulations are performed to calculate the fracture strength of a monolithic silicon ...
The bi-directional plate bending behavior of a pultruded GFRP bridge deck system with orthotropic material and system properties was investigated by means of two full- scale experiments and numerical modeling. Furthermore, the maximum span of the deck betw ...
In this work we describe the vibroacoustic behavior of a novel concept of core for sandwich structures featuring auxetic characteristics, enhanced shear stiffhess and compressive strength compared to classical cellular cores in sandwich components for sand ...

Three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulations are performed to investigate the mechanical properties of ceramics under impact compressive loading. A microcracking model considering the stochastic distribution of internal defects in ceramics is developed. Th ...
