Factors such as project and execution errors, lack of maintenance and inspection, and increases in loading can cause deficiencies to reinforced concrete structures. In this regard, there is the necessity of the application ...

In this work, we show that the interfacial adhesion between carbon fibers (CFs) and epoxy matrix in laminated composites can be significantly enhanced by the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of multiwalled carbon ...

This work deals with the processing and characterization of aluminum/carbon fiber/epoxy composites obtained from anodized and non-anodized aluminum plates. In this work, the electrochemical treatment employed was the ...

The effect of carbon fiber surface characteristics on flexural properties of structural composites is studied in this work. Two types of intermediate modulus carbon fibers were used: T800HB and IM7. Results revealed that ...
