Stacking faults in SiCf/SiC composite obtained by chemical vapor reaction process
(2008-12-01)
SiC fiber-reinforced SiC matrix composite (SiCf/SiC) is one of the leading candidates in ceramic materials for engineering applications due to its unique combination of properties such as high thermal conductivity, high ...
A finite element approach for predicting the ultimate rotation capacity of RC beams
(2013-07-15)
This paper presents a numerical approach to model the complex failure mechanisms that define the ultimate rotational capacity of reinforced concrete beams. The behavior in tension and compression is described by a constitutive ...
Alternatives Panels from Waste Plastics Reinforced With Fibers of Pupunha Palm for Use in Civil Construction and Furniture Industry
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2012-01-01)
In order to cooperate in minimizing the problems of the current and growing volume of waste, this work aims at the production of panels made from industrial waste -thermoplastic (Polypropylene - PP; Polyethylene - PE and ...
An Anisotropic Model of Damage and Unilateral Effect for Brittle Materials
(World Acad Sci, Eng & Tech-waset, 2007-01-01)
This work deals with the initial applications and formulation of an aniscitropic plastic-damage constitutive model proposed for non-linear analysis of reinforced concrete structures submitted to a loading with change of ...
Development of starch biobased and biodegradable plastics for their use in trays for food-packaging
(2011-12-01)
This research work develops new methods to produce biodegradable starch-based trays for the purpose of replacing expanded polystyrene in the food packaging market. The starch based biopolymers present several drawbacks ...

A comparison of signal processing techniques for impedance-based damage characterization in carbon fibers under noisy inspections
(2019-01-01)
Among several structural health monitoring (SHM) systems, the electro-mechanical impedance (EMI) method is an effective failure detection approach in composite components. In the EMI method, damage detection is achieved ...
Study of Stress Concentration in Polymeric Composites Using Finite Element Method
(2010-10-06)
The stress concentration appears in components that have abrupt changes in its geometry or discontinuities such as holes, etc. Because of the presence of these discontinuities occurs a increasing of the stress value. There ...
