Prediction of punching shear capacities of two-way concrete slabs reinforced with FRP bars

open access: yesHBRC Journal, 2013
Where corrosion of steel reinforcement is a concern, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcing bar or grid reinforcement provides an alternative reinforcement for concrete flat slabs.

A Design Method to Exploit Synergies Between Fiber-Reinforce Composites and Additive Manufactured Processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper proposes a design method for devices composed of long fiber-reinforced composites (FRC) and additive manufactured (AM) parts. Both FRC and AM processes have similar application characteristics: suitable for small production volumes, additive ...

KINK�BAND FORMATION OF FIBER REINFORCED POLYMER (FRP)

open access: yes, 2017
Unlike other common practice that introduces a certain misalignment (e.g., a sinusoidal imperfection) to trig kink-band formation, perfect straight fiber layers with ideal elastic-plastic matrix are used in the FEM model under compressive loads with small lateral loads as perturbation, which will be resulted in an upper bound solution of the buckling ...

Serviceability behavior of High Strength Concrete I-beams reinforced with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer bars

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2023
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) bars are anisotropic in nature and have high tensile strength in the fiber direction. The use of High-Strength Concrete (HSC) allows for better use of the high-strength properties of FRP bars.

Smart and Sustainable Sizing: Investigating the Sensing Behavior of Glass Fabrics Coated With Waterborne Polyurethane/Graphene Dispersions

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Waterborne polyurethane/graphene formulations are developed as piezoresistive coatings on glass fabric to enable flexible strain sensing. The graphene‐enabled conductive network provides a stable electromechanical response under cyclic compression. The coating demonstrates reliable pressure‐dependent resistance changes, highlighting its potential for ...
