Fracture Behaviours in Compression-loaded Triangular Corrugated Core Sandwich Panels

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2016
The failure modes occurring in sandwich panels based on the corrugations of aluminium alloy, carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) and glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) are analysed in this work. The fracture behaviour of these sandwich panels under

THE USE OF SISAL FIBRE AS REINFORCEMENT IN CEMENT BASED COMPOSITES

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 1999
The inclusion of fibre reinforcement in concrete, mortar and cement paste can enhance many of the engineering properties of the basic materials, such as fracture toughness, flexural strength and resistance to fatigue, impact, thermal shock and spalling ...

Evaluation of in-plane shear failure in composite laminate with high percentage of 90o plies [PDF]

open access: yes
The first step in analysis composite joint is to have a correct and appropriate definition of properties of material used. The effect of fibre orientation and the interaction between them in the laminated composite play a key role in determining the ...
