in this paper, nonlinear behavior of composite steel plate shear wall systems, in which steel infill plate is strengthened by fiber reinforced polymer (frp) layers, are experimentally investigated. tests are designed to evaluate the effect of glass-frp layers, layers number of gfrp and orientation of gfrp layers on the stiffness, shear strength, cumulative dissipated energy and other seismic pa...

The present study concentrates on optimization and the effect of machining parameters delamination that occurs during drilling operation pure glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites added GFRP which were developed for resistance to erosion wear. Contribution was investigated by using Taguchi method analysis variance (ANOVA). Relationship between modelled response surface methodology. C...

This study investigates the influences of three types locally available low-cost Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) wraps and two concrete mix designs on axial behavior FRP confined concrete. The experimental program comprised four unconfined (control), glass Matt Strand (GFRP-MS) concrete, Rowing (GFRP-R) carbon (CFRP) specimens with a diameter 150 mm height 300 tested under compression. were pre...

Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite pipes are mostly used in transmission lines of submarine oil, natural gas, and chemical fluids. The alterations mechanical characteristics applications great importance to the lifespan material. Some important properties materials density hardness value. In this study, changes values GFRP which were unexposed seawater exposed for 1, 2 3 months inv...

Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymeric (GFRP) Composites are most commonly used as bumpers for vehicles, electrical equipment panels, and medical devices enclosures. These materials also widely structural applications in aerospace, automotive, providing alternatives to traditional metallic materials. The paper fabricated epoxy polyester resin composites by using silicon carbide various proportions al...

Abstract The current study aims to investigate the Material Removal Rate (MRR) of a glass fibre reinforced polymer composite with and without natural fillers (novel Grass powder, Banana fibre). composites were made using hand layup method. We employed three sets nine specimens different each measure MRR in CNC drilling process. Drill diameter, feed rate, spindle speed all controlled variables. ...

Glass/carbon fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP/CFRP) and hybrid components have attracted increasing attention in lightweight applications. However, residual stresses induced the manufacturing process of these can result warpage and, eventually, negatively affect mechanical performance composite structures. In present work, GFRP, CFRP, GFRP/steel CFRP/steel were manufactured through prepreg-press-...

This study discusses the behavior of ambient-cured circular geopolymer concrete specimens tested under different loading conditions. Twelve were cast and to investigate influence type reinforcement, that is, steel glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP), pitch transverse conditions (concentric axial load, 15 35 mm eccentric four-point bending). The load carrying capacity, confinement efficiency, ...

Characterisation of materials subject to high velocity deformation is necessary as many materials behave differently under such conditions. It is particularly important for accurate numerical simulation of high strain rate events. High velocity servo-hydraulic test machines have enabled material testing in the strain rate regime from 1 – 500 ε/s. The range is much lower than that experienced un...
