RISShear Buckling Resistance of GFRP Plate Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Thin webs of glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) girders are sensitive to shear buckling, which can be considered an in-plane biaxial compression-tension buckling problem, according to the rotated stress field theory. ...
Thermomechanical Behavior of Multifunctional GFRP Sandwich Structures with Encapsulated Photovoltaic Cells
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The feasibility of encapsulating solar cells into the glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) skins of load-bearing and thermally insulating sandwich elements with foam cores has been evaluated. Exposure of the encapsulated ...
Contribution to Shear Wrinkling of GFRP Webs in Cell-Core Sandwiches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) cell-core sandwiches are composed of outer GFRP face sheets, a foam core, and a grid of GFRP webs integrated into the core to reinforce the shear load capacity. One of the critical ...
Modeling of Buckling and Wrinkling Behavior in GFRP Plate and Sandwiches Subjected to Biaxial Compression–Tension Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A model for predicting the buckling and wrinkling behavior of glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates and sandwich panels subjected to in-plane biaxial compression–tension loading is presented in this paper. In-plane ...
