THE FATIGUE BEHAVIOUR OF GFRP BARS - EXPERIMENTAL STUDY

Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2019
The paper describes an experimental program for studying the fatigue performance of GFRP bars, which has been initiated by the authors. Two different test configurations were used to assess the fatigue behaviour. The bare specimens were tested within the first series.

Novel Recyclable Hierarchical Carbon Fiber/Epoxy Composites: Preserving Fiber Length and Orientation Using Elium

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 11, Page 9939-9954, 10 June 2026.
Schematic illustration of a hierarchical recycling approach that preserves reinforcing fiber orientation. ABSTRACT Current recycling methods for polymer matrix composites produce short, unoriented carbon fibers, limiting their use to intermediate‐strength applications.

Structural performance assessment of demountable GFRP dowel bar

Al-Qadisiyah Journal for Engineering Science
For jointed precast concrete pavements, this study suggests a novel demountable dowel bar system made of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP). The conventional steel dowel systems have limited reuse, corrosion, and concentrated stress. On the other hand,

Design of Flexural Members Reinforced with GFRP Bars

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract Reinforced concrete has emerged as a primary construction material since the nineteenth century. A passive combination of concrete and steel reinforcing bar (rebar), this composite material is widely used in various types of structures.

Bioinspired Regenerative Lignification Enables Ultra‐Hard and Sustainable Bamboo Structural Materials

Exploration, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
Developing strong and sustainable materials is essential for reducing reliance on metals and lowering carbon emissions. Inspired by how plants naturally harden their cell walls, we created a rapid process that transforms bamboo into an ultra‐hard structural material by rebuilding lignin‐like networks within its structure.

Computational intelligence model for predicting the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete column

Structural Concrete, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 4398-4415, June 2026.
Abstract Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping technology is commonly used to enhance the compressive strength (CS) of reinforced concrete (RC) members. Accurate prediction of the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete columns is crucial for optimizing structural design and helps reduce the time and costs associated with physical testing ...

Modeling of GFRP–Concrete Bond–Slip Behavior: Integrating Neural Networks with Finite Element Analysis

Construction Materials
Glass fibre-reinforced polymer (GFRP) offers a durable, high-tensile strength alternative to steel rebar in reinforced concrete (RC). However, the inherent lack of ductility in GFRP limits its structural applications, which has led to the development of ...

Reversing Fatigue Damage in Carbon Fiber–Thermoplastic Composites Using Localized Plasma Heating

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 10, Page 8990-9001, 20 May 2026.
Schematic overview of the plasma‐assisted repair strategy for fatigue‐damaged short fiber carbon fiber/ABS composites. Pristine specimens are subjected to cyclic fatigue loading inducing damage. Localized plasma heating softens the thermoplastic matrix, enabling healing and restoring mechanical performance. Tensile testing is used to quantify recovery.
