General lifetime damage model for glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes under multiaxial loading
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
This paper presents the modelling of a general lifetime performance for glass fibre
reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes similar to the well-known Tsai-Hill interactive failure
criterion. Tsai Hill criterion is based ...
Tensile strength of untreated napier grass fibre reinforced unsaturated polyester composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014-06)
This paper describes the experimental investigation of the tensile strength of untreated Napier grass fibre reinforced polyester composites. Napier grass fibres were extracted trough conventional water retting process and ...
The interlaminar shear strength test of helical wound glass fibre reinforced epoxy laminates subjected to hydrothermal ageing
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014-06)
This paper presents the experimental investigation of interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) tests of helical wound glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) pipes subjected to hydrothermal ageing. Currently, the test is being used ...
3D finite element stress analysis of butt adhesively bonded dissimilar joint: effect of bond thickness on strength
(Trans Tech Publications, 2014-06)
The butt joint is the most studied type of adhesive joints in the literature. However, the joint strength prediction of joints is still a controversial issue as it involves a lot of factors that are difficult to quantify ...
