Abstract: Polymeric composites are relatively inexpensive materials of high strength, in which deformation of the matrix is used to transfer stress by means of shear traction at the fiber-matrix interface ...

Abstract: Concrete cylinders jacketed with glass and carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites were exposed to 201 freeze-thaw cycles, and results of compression response were compared with results from similar specimens kept ...

Abstract: Experimental investigations were carried out on unidirectional Graphite/Epoxy laminate samples under dynamic compression loading using a modified Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar. High strain rate testing ...
