Experimental and design‐oriented research on fiber reinforced concrete segmental tunnel linings: A systematic review

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) in precast tunnel segments is among the most established and representative applications of this material. Over the past two decades, numerous tunnel linings were constructed with partial or total substitution of conventional steel reinforcement by fibers, this yielding to quantifiable benefits in ...

The challenges of GFRP RC beam design for limit states

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are used ever more frequently in concrete construction due to their non‐corrosive and anti‐magnetic properties. Their research over the past decades focused on fundamental questions, such as the design aspects of beams under flexural loads.

Experimental and numerical investigation on the flexural response of GFRP‐reinforced SFRC beams

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract In order to address the challenges related to the deformability and ductility of concrete beams reinforced with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars, an alternative solution involving steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) has been proposed. In the present study, a total of seven beams—including one steel‐reinforced reference beam and six glass

Infrared Thermographic Assessment of Fatigue Behavior in Bolted Composite Joints

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the temperature evolution of bolted thick glass fiber reinforced polymer composites during fatigue testing. Three different adherend thicknesses (8, 10, and 12 mm) and three different bolt tightening torques (30, 40, and 50 N·$$ \cdotp $$m were considered to evaluate the effects of adherend thickness and bolt tightening

Wind Turbine Blade Crack Detection and Assessment in Images Using Machine Learning

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT As the wind energy industry matures, inspection of wind turbine blades (WTBs) is shifting from a manual process involving rope access and grading of damage, towards unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photography and artificial intelligence‐aided processing of data.

Flexural Behavior of UHPC Beams Reinforced with Macro-Steel Fibers and Different Ratios of Steel and GFRP Bars [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
The flexural and shear behavior of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) reinforced with different ratios of glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) and conventional steel rebars is experimentally studied in this paper. For this purpose,

Quantifying Fiber Bridging in Mode I Fatigue Delamination of CFRP/GFRP Hybrid Laminates Using a Superposed Traction–Separation Model

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 3605-3615, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Hybrid CFRP/GFRP laminates offer an attractive balance between mechanical performance, damage tolerance, and cost efficiency. However, fiber bridging during mode I delamination increases crack‐growth resistance while masking the intrinsic fatigue behavior of the material. This study applies a traction–separation‐based superposition approach to
