Abstract: In many situations, it is necessary to splice multiple layers of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite laminates. The relatively low bond and shear strength of FRP layers usually necessitates long lap splices. In this ...

Abstract: This study investigates the effect of alumina nanoparticles (ANPs) on tension and fracture characteristics of polymer concrete (PC). ANPs with a maximum particle size of 50 nm were used at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 wt.% ...
