Study of a Novel Bi‐Layered Thermoplastic Polyurethane Patch for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Large congenital diaphragmatic hernia remains a challenge due to the poor compatibility of current prostheses. To tackle this problem, a bilayer thermoplastic polyurethane patch with tunable mechanical properties is engineered, whose fibrous side supports rapid fibroblast and myoblast colonization, while the smooth film limits adhesions.

Fatigue Tensile Testing of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Reinforcing Bars

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022
Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are a valid alternative to traditional steel bars for reinforcing concrete structures in specific situations. Although the elastic modulus of GFRP bars is generally 20–25% of that of steel bars, which entails for a higher cross-sectional area of GFRP than of steel bars for the same axial stiffness, they have ...

Glass fiber-reinforced polymer composites – a review

Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2014
Glass fibers reinforced polymer composites have been prepared by various manufacturing technology and are widely used for various applications. Initially, ancient Egyptians made containers by glass fibers drawn from heat softened glass. Continues glass fibers were first manufactured in the 1930s for high-temperature electrical application.

Failure of Polymer Beams Reinforced with Glass Fibers

Mechanics of Composite Materials, 2020
The present paper deals with the four-point bending of polyvinyl chloride beams reinforced with glass fiber clusters. The clusters, treated as orthotropic materials, were arranged periodically along the longitudinal axis of beams. The load-carrying capacity of the beams was estimated by two methods.

Concrete Columns Reinforced by Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer Rods

SP-188: 4th Intl Symposium - Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement for Reinforced Concrete Structures, 1999
A total of 15 concrete columns were cast and tested to investigate the influence of replacing longitidunal and/or tie steel bars by an equal volume of amount of glass fiber reinforced polymers (GFRP) bars on the behavior of concrete columns. The columns were subjected to concentric monotonic axial loading.

Performance of Hollow Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Rebars

Journal of Composites for Construction, 1999
The results of bond and tensile strength investigation of hollow glass-fiber reinforced plastic rebars are presented. Rebars with similar geometries but different microstructures were evaluated. Bond characteristics of on- and off-axis specimens, in terms of maximum sustained load, bond strength and stress, concrete compressive strength, and initial ...

Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers

2018
Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP), commonly called fiberglass, is used for a huge variety of applications including boat hulls, car bodies, roofing shingles, pipes, flooring and various containers and storage tanks. GFRP is referred to as a composite material since it is a combination of two different materials, that is, glass fibers in the form of

One-Way Slabs Reinforced with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforcing Bars

SP-188: 4th Intl Symposium - Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement for Reinforced Concrete Structures, 1999
Twelve reinforced concrete deck panels were tested to study the potential of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebars as a replacement for epoxy coated steel (ECS) rebars in concrete bridge decks. Span lengths during testing were 2130 mm and 2740 mm.
