Creep of Gr/BMI composite laminates in compression

Creator:

Tyagi, Sanjeev R.

Abstract:

The main source of the time-dependent behavior of fiber-reinforced composites is their polymeric matrix, which causes concerns about their long term durability. Although for composites where organic fibers such as Graphite are used, the fibers are also a contributing factor. A composite material may exhibit an appreciable amount of creep,...

Experimental and finite-element analysis of stress distributions near the end of reinforcement in partially reinforced glulam

Creator:

Kirlin, Chad P.

Abstract:

Recently, fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP lamina) have been applied to glued-laminated (glulam) timber for the purpose of improving bending strength and stiffness. Initially, full length reinforcement using FRP lamina was developed. However, the cost of FRP lamina is a significant portion of the total cost of reinforced glulam. Therefore, it is...
