Investigation of fiber/matrix adhesion: test speed and specimen shape effects in the cylinder test

open access: yes, 2013
The cylinder test, developed from the microdroplet test, was adapted to assess the interfacial adhesion strength between fiber and matrix. The sensitivity of cylinder test to pull-out speed and specimen geometry was measured.

Influence of Higher Concentrations of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes on the Tensile and Flexural Performance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
The addition of MWCNTs enhanced the tensile and flexural behavior of GFRP composites. Maximum strength and stiffness were obtained at 3 wt% MWCNTs, whereas intermediate contents showed reduced performance due to poor dispersion. The results confirm that uniform nanotube dispersion is essential for achieving reliable mechanical performance in GFRP ...

Evaluation of interlaminar shear strength of a unidirectional carbon/epoxy laminated composite under impact loading

open access: yes, 2006
The interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of a unidirectional carbon/epoxy (T700/2521) laminated composite under impact loading is determined using the conventional split Hopkinson pressure bar.

Superior through‐plane thermal conductivity in carbon fibers/spherical graphene/epoxy laminated composites for low‐altitude aircrafts

open access: yesInfoMat, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
To address the low through‐plane thermal conductivity (λ⊥) of carbon fiber/epoxy composites, which poses thermal management challenges in the expanding low‐altitude economy, we incorporated spherical thermally reduced graphene (s‐TRG) as a bridging filler. This architectural design achieved a λ⊥ of 2.73 W m–1 K–1 at 10 wt% loading.

Detrimental Effect of Low‐Magnitude High‐Frequency Vibration in an Ex Vivo Model of Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Despite Estrogen Treatment

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Low‐magnitude high‐frequency vibration (LMHFV), with or without 17β‐oestradiol (E2), exacerbated papain‐induced bovine intervertebral disc degeneration, reducing cell viability, impairing matrix production, and increasing inflammation. E2 showed no protective effect against papain‐induced degeneration or LMHFV.

Effect of Z-Fiber® pinning on the mechanical properties of carbon fibre/epoxy composites

open access: yes, 2003
This study investigates the effects of Z-pinning on the delamination performance in opening and shear loading modes in woven fabric reinforced / epoxy composite materials, as well as the effects of friction between specimen crack faces and the Z-pin ...

Investigation on Impact Behavior of Thermoplastic Composites: A Ply‐Level Numerical Methodology for Impact‐Resistance Design

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 10, Page 8792-8804, 20 May 2026.
Experimental and numerical investigation on impact‐tolerance efficient evaluation of soft TPU composites. ABSTRACT This study combines experimental characterization and numerical modeling to investigate the impact behavior of aramid fiber–reinforced composites incorporating a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) matrix. Low‐velocity impact (LVI) tests were

Long-Term Properties of Interlaminar Shear Strength of Composite Laminates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Components made of fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) are frequently used in environments with fluctuating temperatures and moisture levels. These environmental factors lead to a degradation of the FRP in the long term. The mechanisms behind the degradation
