Finite Element Analysis of Low Velocity Impact on Carbon Fibers/Carbon Nanotubes Reinforced Polymer Composites
An effort is made to gain insight on the effect of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the impact response of carbon fiber reinforced composites (CFRs) under low velocity impact. Certain amount of CNTs could lead improvements in mechanical properties of composites. In the present investigation, ABAQUS/Explicit finite element code (FEM) is employed to investigate various damages modes of nano composites ...
متن کاملFrp Sandwich Structures in Bridge and Building Construction
Selected applications of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sandwich structural elements in building and bridge construction are discussed. It is shown how in building construction this technology enables the integration of functions such as load-bearing capacity, thermal insulation, daylight entry and energy production, into single, large-scale and lightweight roof or façade panels. In bridge cons...
متن کاملCIES 02 - 26 Laboratory and Field Testing of FRP Composite Bridge Decks and FRP - Reinforced Concrete Bridge for the City of St . James , Phelps County , MO by Danielle Stone
The overall objective of this research project was to conduct an extensive study of the behavior and use of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) and carbon FRP (CFRP) materials for bridge construction. In particular, GFRP honeycomb sandwich panels were used as bridge panels and steel-supported bridge deck panels and CFRP and GFRP bars were used as internal reinforcement for precast concrete br...
متن کاملMeso-scale Modeling of Tension Analysis of Pure and Intra-ply Hybrid Woven Composites Using Finite Element Method
One of the key issues associated with using of composites in various applications is their tensile behavior. The tensile behavior of a composite material is strongly influenced by the properties of its constituents and their distribution. This paper focuses on gaining some insights into the tensile process of pure and hybrid woven composite reinforced with brittle and ductile yarns. For this pu...
متن کاملDesigning a prefabricated sandwich composite roofing system Made up of resisting facings and light-weight concrete core with truss-shaped connectors
In this paper, a new roofing system is introduced, which is constructued using the precast composite sandwich panels. This roofing sandwich panels system consists of three kinds of precast concrete sandwich panels including capital panels, beam or between columns panels, and slab or middle panels. The panels are composed of three layers; A high strength reinforced concrete top layer. A thick la...
