Carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites (CFRPs) have been widely used in civil
engineering due to light weight, high strength, corrosion resistance, etc. CFRPs can …

Machining of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) with less damage remains to be a
challenge because of anisotropy and inhomogeneity issues. Flood cooling will reduce the …

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are of high interest in the field of
aerospace because of their extremely high strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios …

This work demonstrates the potential of manufacturing variable-angle composite cylinders
via filament winding (FW), called VAFW. The proposed design strategy allows different …

A machine learning-assisted composite design framework is established in this paper as an
effective and efficient way to find feasible or optimal selections of fiber materials and layup …

Grinding plays an important role in ensuring the final machining quality in the manufacturing
process of composite parts. Problems such as grinding damage, grinding wheel wear and …

The mechanical response of composite structures may be affected by harsh environments,
particularly when the matrix has a major contribution, eg with off-axis plies. This study aims …

This paper discusses a key parameter 'fibre architecture'that is believed to play a major part
in the performance of CFRP composites when subjected to water absorption. Unidirectional …

In this work, damage and failure in carbon fiber reinforced epoxy filament wound composite
tubes were thoroughly evaluated through a proposed damage model, which is able to …

Identification of the boundary between failure by buckling, collapse and material failure in
cylindrical tubes under axial compression is still challenging. The focus of this research is to …
