Abstract: Abstract The strut-and-tie model (STM) is currently established as the best approach for pile cap design. This model leads to efficient estimations of the main reinforcement placed in strips between piles. However, good practices and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1520/jte20170510
Abstract: This study is focused on the drop weight low-velocity impact (LVI) response of glass woven polymer composite laminates reinforced with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Symmetrical quasi-isotropic laminates with zero bending-extension coupling were fabricated. Six hundred-grams… read more here.
