Non-destructive assessment of strain and mechanical fatigue in neat and glass fibre-reinforced epoxy via NIR spectroscopy

open access: yesPolymer Testing
In this study, changes in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum in neat epoxy and glass fibre-reinforced plastic under tensile stress and cyclic fatigue loading are investigated. Specimens were fabricated using resin transfer moulding.

Behaviour of Hybrid Steel and FRP-Reinforced Concrete—ECC Composite Columns under Reversed Cyclic Loading

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) is used widely in concrete structures owing to its noncorrosive, light-weight, nonmagnetic, and high tensile-strength properties.

Approach for safety assessment of glass fibre‐sizing agents in glass fibre‐reinforced plastics for food contact

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2015
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to review Commission proposals for classification of the substances used as sizing agents and provide an opinion on whether or not the proposed classifications could imply an unacceptable ...

Penetration impact testing of self-reinforced composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Penetration impact resistance is one of the key advantages of self-reinforced composites. This is typically measured using the same setup as for brittle fibre composites.

Flexural behaviour of one-way slabs with stainless steel and fibre reinforced concrete under elevated temperature

open access: yesResults in Engineering
This study investigates the post-fire flexural performance of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs, with novelty in evaluating the combined effects of reinforcement type, hybrid fibre concretes, and thermal exposure at 700 °C for two hours.
