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.

Fibre composites for high pressure pipeline repairs, in-air and subsea: an overview [PDF]

, 2012
In 2001 it was reported that in North America alone, corrosion to the Oil & Gas pipeline distribution network cost approximately $2-3.3 billion per annum with 10% of that cost being associated with actual failure of the pipeline.

Variational Method and CZM‐Based FEM Mechanical Strength Assessment of Adhesively Bonded Hybrid Sisal‐Glass Reinforced HDPE Composite for Automobile Side Body Panel Application

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Adhesively bonded steel‐to‐hybrid sisal–glass/HDPE joints were experimentally and numerically assessed using a variational method and CZM‐based FEM. Optimal overlap (10 mm) and adhesive thickness (0.5 mm) achieved peak shear stress of 32 MPa, confirming lightweight, sustainable automotive panel potential. ABSTRACT This study investigates the mechanical

Nonlinear Modeling of Rectangular Reinforced Concrete Columns Jacketed Using FRP Materials

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
A database of 74 tests conducted on rectangular concrete columns retrofitted using externally bonded FRP jackets was used to evaluate leading methods for estimating strength and deformation capacities of FRP‐jacketed columns. Due to observed shortcomings in current methods, new relations for nonlinear modeling parameters (MPs) are proposed for FRP ...
