Reinforcement of concrete using Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer

open access: yesJournal of Materials and Engineering Structures, 2022
The use of composite materials such as fiber reinforced polymers in strengthening and repairing of structural elements, particularly those made of reinforced concrete, is widely spreading. Among the fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) used for concrete strengthening, GFRP because they are more ductile and cheaper than carbon fibers and can be considered as

Modular Paradigm for Composites: Modeling Hydrothermal Degradation of Glass Fibers

open access: yesFibers, 2021
Fiber-reinforced composite materials are often used in structural applications in humid, marine, and offshore environments. Superior mechanical properties are compromised by environmental ageing and hydrolytic degradation.

Failure and impact behavior of facade panels made of glass fiber reinforced cement(GRC) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
GRC is a cementitious composite material made up of a cement mortar matrix and chopped glass fibers. Due to its outstanding mechanical properties, GRC has been widely used to produce cladding panels and some civil engineering elements.

Mechanical property and fracture mechanism of glass fiber reinforced polymer and carbon fiber reinforced polymer

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
In the automotive field, most of the manufacturers are looking to replace the material steel, aluminium with lightweight material like carbon fiber or glass fiber composite. The purpose are due to their relatively high strength, higher chemical resistance, flexible usage temperature and higher stiffness than steel.

Temperature dependence of the interfacial shear strength in glass-fibre epoxy composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The present work focuses on further investigation of the hypothesis that a significant fraction of apparent interfacial shear strength (IFSS) in fibre-reinforced composites can be attributed to a combination of residual radial compressive stress and ...
