The influence of service temperature on bond between FRP reinforcement and concrete [PDF]
, 2006 The interest in fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement in construction has considerably increased and especially the application of FRP as externally bonded reinforcement (FRP EBR) has become more and more established.

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) wall‐like columns often have openings to facilitate building services, which creates stress concentrations around the opening, resulting in the weakening of their load‐carrying capacity. This study proposes innovative strengthening methods using near‐surface mounted (NSM) incorporating steel materials to ...

Effect of entry sheet on hole position accuracy when drilling of printed circuit boards
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017 Recently, the diameter of through hole on printed circuit board (PCB) has become smaller with downsizing of electric devices. However, the drilling small diameter through hole includes some problems such as hole position accuracy and hole bending.

Fatigue crack growth in thin notched woven glass composites under tensile loading. Part II: modelling [PDF]
, 2011 Fatigue propagation of a through-the-thickness crack in thin woven glass laminates is difficult to model when using homogeneous material assumption. Crack growth depends on both the fatigue behaviour of the fibres and of the matrix, these two phenomena ...

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 2925-2954, 20 February 2026.Role of the modifications at the interface in glass fiber reinforced composites for damage monitoring. ABSTRACT Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRPs) are widely used in structural applications but degrade over time due to internal damage. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) enables early damage detection, improving reliability and reducing maintenance

Failure-mode-hierarchy-based design for reinforced concrete structures [PDF]
, 2005 Innovations in concrete construction can be held back by the inability of codes of practice to accommodate new materials. The current design and safety philosophy (DSP) of reinforced concrete relies heavily on the properties of steel reinforcement.

Manufacturing of PP‐Based Composite Sandwich Panels via Simultaneous Foaming and Skin‐Core Bonding
Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 2349-2362, 10 February 2026.One‐step CO2 physical foaming process for manufacturing thermoplastic sandwich panels: in‐situ expansion of a foaming‐grade PP core and fusion bonding with PP/glass fiber composite skins. ABSTRACT Sandwich panels are skin‐core‐skin structures commonly used in aerospace applications due to their high strength‐to‐weight ratio and flexural stiffness.
