Strengthening Metallic Structures using Externally-Bonded FRP: An Overview of UK Practice [PDF]

, 2004
Strengthening metallic structures using externally-bonded fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs) is a young and rapidly developing technique. It allows extension of the lives of structures that are deficient due to corrosion, fatigue, damage, or where a change

Role of Fiber Sizing in Interfacial Relaxation, Water Uptake and Fatigue Properties of Acrylic‐Matrix Composites

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Characterisation of glass fibre reinforced acrylic with acrylic‐tailored or multi‐compatible sizing agents. ABSTRACT Fiber‐reinforced infusible acrylic monomer resins are of interest as recyclable alternatives to epoxy and other thermoset resin composites, but the novelty of these resins causes published studies on acrylic‐matrix composites to often ...

Characterization of Shear Strength of FRP Anchors

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
A critical performance aspect of FRP retrofitted concrete elements is the bonding of the FRP sheet to the concrete surface. In general, the performance is limited by the debonding of the loaded FRP sheets from the concrete surface.

Potential of Thermoset Polyolefins for FRP Concrete Reinforcing Bars

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Overview of XLPO and pDCPD resins for FRP reinforcing bars, highlighting resin chemistry, key performance characteristics, fiber sizing interactions, and principal degradation mechanisms in concrete environments. ABSTRACT Although thermoset polyolefins offer resistance to hydrolytic degradation and favorable processing characteristics, their potential ...

Functionally Graded Nanofiber Interlayers for Hydrothermally Aged Glass/Epoxy Laminates: Mechanical Performance and Electromagnetic Attenuation

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Functionally graded Ag/Fe3O4‐loaded PAN nanofiber interlayers for improved mechanical performance and EMI attenuation in GFRP laminates. ABSTRACT Functionally graded Ag/Fe3O4‐loaded polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber interlayers were placed between selected glass fabric plies to improve interlaminar damage resistance in glass fiber‐reinforced polymer ...

Intermediate debonding of FRP strengthened RC beams

, 2007
In the present paper, first results of an experimental campaign concerning failure due to intermediate crack-induced (IC) debonding of r.c. beams strengthened with FRP composites (both CFRP plates and sheets) are presented.

Cálculo en agotamiento de secciones de fábrica reforzadas a flexión con láminas de FRP

Informes de la Construccion, 2015
Las estructuras de fábrica apenas tienen capacidad para resistir tracciones lo que las hace vulnerables ante acciones desestabilizantes de tipo accidental, como terremotos, o cuando sufren daños que alteran su geometría, por ejemplo, por asientos ...

Additive Manufacturing of Glass Fiber‐Reinforced Polypropylene and Its Behavior Under Controlled Hydrogen Exposure

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Experimental and numerical assessment of GFRPP under lower experimental hydrogen pressures using tensile testing, SEM analysis, and hydrogen uptake estimation. ABSTRACT Glass fiber‐reinforced polypropylene (GFRPP) composites are increasingly explored for hydrogen transport and storage due to their lightweight nature and corrosion resistance.

Structural Performance of Hybrid Fiber–Metal Laminates Reinforced With Natural and Synthetic Fibers: Tensile, Dynamic–Mechanical, and Residual Stress Behavior

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Hybrid fiber‐metal laminates combining aluminum with carbon, glass, and sisal/epoxy layers. Sisal fibers maintained strength, improved strain and thermal stability, and reduced residual stresses with less synthetic fiber. ABSTRACT This work studied how hybridization between natural and synthetic fibers influences the structural tensile performance ...
