Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) ship structures have hull plate thicknesses of 10 mm or more and are fabricated using a higher proportion of resin matrix systems than E-glass fiber reinforcements. Therefore, GFRP is classified as a highly attenuati...

Reinforced concrete is the most commonly used material in the construction industry. However, one disadvantage of reinforced concrete is that environmental factors cause materials to penetrate the concrete and cause steel bar corrosion. Rebar corrosion i...

Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRP) are commonly used as internal reinforcement in RC structures in aggressive environments. The design of concrete elements reinforced with FRP bars is usually ruled by serviceability criteria rather than the ultimate limit s...

The rehabilitation of steel structures with Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP?s) may appear less effective because they can be bolted or welded with steel plates that display the same mechanical properties. However, this technique has some unwanted conseque...

Two unique approaches were proposed to strengthen the bond between the glass fiber reinforcement polymer (GFRP) and the RC concrete surfaces. The two bonding materials are epoxy (EP) and geopolymer (GPP) with different ratios of short glass fibers (SGF)....

Defects such as voids in composite materials often degrade the mechanical properties of laminates. Even if these materials are manufactured based on the design requirements, there is a possibility of instability occurring in these composite structures. I...
