Polymeric composites exhibit time-dependent behavior, which raises a concern
about their long term durability and leads to a viscoelastic study of these materials.
Linear viscoelastic analysis has been found to be inadequate because many polymers
exhibit nonlinear viscoelastic behavior. Classical laminate theory is commonly used in
the study of laminated...
The reinforcement of wood and wood composite structural products to improve
their mechanical properties has been in practice for many years. Recently, the use of high-strength
fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) as a reinforcement in such applications has been
commercialized.
The reinforcement is manufactured using a standard pultrusion process or
alternatively a...
