Optimal Configuration for Fiber Reinforced Composites under Uncertainties of Material Properties and Loadings
Fiber reinforced composite structures could be designed by selecting proper fiber orientation in structures to suit specified desires for strength, stiffness or other mechanical properties....
Groundwater Recovery Program for Southern California
Under its new Groundwater Recovery Program (GRP), The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California will improve regional water supply reliability by providing financial assistance...
Concrete Beam Testing with Optical Fiber Sensors
The use of an embedded multimode optical fiber to monitor curing and load-to-failure testing of a reinforced concrete beam has been investigated. The embedding process used to network...
Experimental and Theoretical Study of Flexural Behavior of Polymer Fiber Reinforced, Cement-Treated Soils
Feasibility of FRP Molded Grating-Concrete Composites for One-Way Slab Systems
This paper describes the behavior of one-way concrete slabs reinforced with Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) molded grating. FRP molded grating is commercially available and is mainly...
Full Scale Tests on Concentrically Loaded Fiber-Reinforced Pultruded Columns
This paper briefly reports on the experimental investigation in connection with the short term behavior of pultruded structural members under concentric loading. In particular, results...
Fiber Ropes for Ocean Engineering in the 21st Century
Recent advances in synthetic fiber ropes will greatly influence the practice of civil engineering in the oceans during the 21st Century. New fibers have moduli almost as high as steel...
Unidirected Twined-Strand Composites and Their Uses
Twined strand composites are a new class of unidirected continuous-fiber-reinforced composite materials where the orientation of the continuous fibers is a twine of unidirected helically...
Stochastic Modeling of Short Fiber Reinforced Composites—A Review
Since the early 1960's, an extensive research and development has been carried out with fiber reinforced cements and concretes. Modeling of such heterogeneous material is still in the...
