Composites can be divided into three groups based on their matrix materials, namely
polymer, metal and ceramic. Composite materials fail due to micro cracks. Repairing is …

Achieving a high electrical conductivity while maintaining a good thermal insulation is often
contradictory in the material design for the goal of simultaneous thermal protection and …

The paper is devoted to an experimental campaign on fifteen perforated masonry walls,
which were strengthened with external FRP reinforcement, bonded using three different …

Ultrasonic inspection is widely used for non-destructive evaluation of composite adhesive
joints. However, there are serious challenges in applying ultrasonic testing on metal to …

High performance structures require the use of different materials to meet their demanding
requirements. Especially fibre reinforced polymer composites are nowadays often bonded to …

The structural integrity of several structures could be determined by their joints strength.
Over the years, adhesively bonded joints have been often chosen to achieve a compromise …

Single lap bonded joints with four different composite adherend stacking sequences were
tested and numerically simulated. The aim was to evaluate the effect of the layups on the …
