Probabilistic assessment of the impact of material properties on the risk of frost damage in masonry constructions [PDF]
, 2019 Historically valuable buildings often contain a huge energy saving potential due to their current lacking thermal performance of the building envelope. Next to this, unfortunately insulation measures, which normally occur at the inside, induce a decrease

Impact and Post‐Impact Properties of Carbon Fiber Fabric Laminates Reinforced With Carbon Nanofibres
Polymer Composites, EarlyView.Carbon nanofiber addition on the low‐velocity impact response of carbon fiber laminates. ABSTRACT The use of carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRPs) is limited by their susceptibility to low‐velocity impact (LVI) damage. This study investigates the effect of incorporating 0.75 wt.% carbon nanofibres (CNFs) into the epoxy matrix of carbon fiber fabric ...
