Increasing environmental consciousness, triggered by global climate change awareness, has found a response in the composite material industry and pushed representatives to search for environmentally friendly alternatives conventional materials. To reduce carbon footprint minimize damage nature, preference natural fibres instead of synthetic can be considered step taken this context. Today, it i...

The growing concern for the preservation of old buildings and wide use masonry in construction civil works has led to a great development specific techniques strengthen structures. FRCM (fabric reinforced cementitious matrix) vegetal fibres arises as strengthening option be considered because low cost, density, recyclability biodegradability brought by fibres. In this study, numerical models we...

Sustainability is of fundamental importance for the construction industry: in recent decades researchers focused on supplementing building components with multiple natural fibres, evaluating their mechanical performance and application fields. In this field, common plasters are usually equipped glass fibre mesh to avoid crack patterns due shrinkage. Natural thanks high tensile resistance, can r...

The main purpose of this study is an experimental investigation and comparison the mechanical properties pultruded glass fibre reinforced polymer composite based on polyester vinylester resin. For purpose, specimens were cut from walls square tube profile along to fibres direction. such as ultimate tensile strength bending strength, modulus flexural obtained. It was observed that using vinyl es...

The drawbacks are that the concrete has been improved by using hybrid fibre in concrete. By hybridization benefits from two different fibres utilized a single mixture. hybrids studied basalt-polypropylene fibre, polypropylene-steel steel-coconut polypropylene-e-waste polypropylene-polyvinyl Alcohol and steel-glass- polypropylene fibre. properties compressive strength, tensile flexural limited c...

• Caldwell* was the first to measure directly the pH of large cells (crab muscle fibres) with a glass electrode. Kostyuk and Sorokina reduced considerably the dimensions of the glass electrode and measured directly the intracellular pH of sartorius muscle (frog). Finally, Carter first measured the intracellular pH of a mammalian cell (rat voluntary muscle) by means of a double-barreled microele...
