On the Endurance Limit of Fiberglass Pipes Using Acoustic Emission
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes a method for determining endurance limits to leakage for fiberglass pipes under internal pressure using acoustic emission signals and static pressure tests. Results are presented ...
Influence of Elevated Temperature on the Acoustic Emission Evaluation of FRP Vessels Through Internal Fluid Pressure Tests
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A research program evaluating the effect of elevated temperature in the acoustic emission testing of fiberglass vessels was completed recently. The program aimed at evaluating the current ASME ...
Effect of Temperature on Acoustic Emission Evaluation of FRP Vessels (Tensile Specimens)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Current American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) provisions require that acoustic emission testing for class II vessels be carried out at operating temperature in the event that the ...
Nondestructive Evaluation of FRP Design Criteria With Primary Consideration to Fatigue Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Design of FRP tanks and pressure vessels is based on criteria developed in the late 1960s using materials and procedures that represented the state of the art at the time. Maximum strain has ...
Design and Field Evaluation of Hybrid FRP/Reinforced Concrete Superstructure System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymers offer several advantages over conventional construction materials but are also faced with several challenges. These include increased first cost, relatively low stiffness, and a lack of field ...
