FRP Poles: A State-of-the-Art-Review of Manufacturing, Testing, and Modeling
Buildings, 2022 Fiber-reinforced polymers poles were on the increase because they were lightweight, have high strength-to-weight ratios, provide corrosion resistance, can be customized to meet strength and deflection requirements, and have a low life-cycle cost of ...

Effect of Hot-Wet Storage Aging on Mechanical Response of a Woven Thermoplastic Composite
Aerospace, 2020 The effect of hot-wet storage aging on the mechanical response of a carbon fiber polyether ether ketone (PEEK)-matrix woven composite has been studied. A wide range of static loads and selected cyclic load tests on the interlaminar fatigue strength were ...

A refined shear deformation theory for flexure of thick beams
Latin American Journal of Solids and StructuresA Hyperbolic Shear Deformation Theory (HPSDT) taking into account transverse shear deformation effects, is used for the static flexure analysis of thick isotropic beams. The displacement field of the theory contains two variables.

Non-dimensional approach for static balancing of rotational flexures
Mechanism and Machine Theory, 2015 Abstract This work presents a general method of statically balancing flexural hinges. Using a set of non-dimensional parameters, we show that one can quickly design a statically balanced rotational flexure. First, a balancing method is developed for an idealized hinge/torsion spring system.

Static flexural modes and piezoelectricity in 2D and layered crystals [PDF]
physica status solidi (b), 2016 AbstractPiezo‐ and flexoelectricity are manifestations of electromechanical coupling in solids with potential applications in nanoscale materials. Naumov et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 217601 (2009)] have shown by first principles calculations that a monolayer BN sheet becomes macroscopically polarized in‐plane when in a corrugated state.
