Hybrid continuous fiber–reinforced composites produced by fused deposition modeling (FDM) offer a promising solution for lightweight load-bearing structures. However, their mechanical performance is strongly governed by internal…
Manufacturing defects are inherent to any manufacturing process. However, in composite materials they might be unavoidable, e.g. ply waviness or even folds of plies are present in complex shaped parts during high pressure resin transfer…
This work presents experimental and numerical research to evaluate the compression confinement techniques of HSC beams reinforced with different ratios of high-strength steel reinforcement. Twelve specimens of high-strength reinforced…
The present experimental study includes testing thirteen reinforced concrete beams with openings at different locations to investigate the efficiency of strengthening such openings. Different strengthening techniques around the opening…
The widespread use of carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites in sectors such as aerospace and aviation calls for the adoption of sustainable recycling protocols. This research evaluates the mechanical and tomographic…
The rapid development of inhomogeneous and anisotropic materials like carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) with epoxy matrices necessitates a multidisciplinary approach for safe use. This approach should integrate computational modeling…
This paper investigates numerically the behavior of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams, strengthened using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) sheets, subjected to impact loading. Three-dimensional finite element analysis was performed and…
The study focuses on examining the impact of internal manufacturing defects (voids and wrinkles) on the mechanical behavior of structural carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) under shear loading. Specimens of VKU/VSE1212 material with a…
Onyx ® is a new material composed of Polyamide 6 reinforced with short carbon fiber, used in the novel additive manufacturing composites technique. This paper aims to present the axial fatigue performance of this material with and without…
The article presents the results of computational and experimental studies of the strength and damageability of a connecting composite part in a metal-composite joint of isogrid and anisogrid structures made of polymer composite material…
