Effects of hygrothermal stress on the failure of CFRP composites [PDF]
, 2015 This paper investigates the hygrothermal effects on the failure mechanisms in bending of carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites. Accelerated diffusion testing was carried out by immersion at 50 °C constant temperature and 70 bar hydrostatic ...

Indoor air quality and early detection of mould growth in residential buildings: a case study
UCL Open Environment, 2022 Mould growth affects one in three homes, and it is the biggest cause for complaints and litigations filed to the relevant authorities in Australia, while also significantly affecting the physical and psychological health of the building’s occupants ...

Hygrothermal Deformation of Composite Sandwich Panels [PDF]
Advanced Composites Letters, 2000 Coefficients of thermal and moisture expansion (CTE and CME) can be predicted for many composite laminates and sandwich panels. Core and adhesive properties, such as geometry and stiffness are important variables. Laminate theory is augmented with a modified model for anisotropic core properties to predict the CTE and CME of sandwich panels. Procedures

Hygrothermal properties of compressed earthen bricks [PDF]
Construction and Building Materials, 2018 Abstract The present study investigates the relationship between bulk density and hygrothermal behaviour of compressed earthen bricks. The experimental results show that the thermal conductivity linearly increases from 0.5228 W/(m K) to 0.9308 W/(m K) as the bulk density increases, and that the equilibrium moisture content increases with increasing ...
