TL;DR: In this article, the durability and mechanical performance (tensile and flexural behavior) of flax/bio-epoxy composites exposed to different environmental conditions were evaluated and it was found that these properties can be partially regained after drying the water aged composites.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors specified that natural flax fiber is comparable with synthetic fibers due to its unique physical and mechanical characteristics which have been recognized for decades, and they also pointed out the advantages of natural fiber over synthetic fibers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on defining lifetime, developing lifetime warranty policies and models for predicting failures and estimating costs for Lifetime Warranty policies, which is relatively a new concept and modeling of failures during the warranty period and the costs for such policies are complex since the lifespan in these policies are not defined well and it is often difficult to tell about life measures for the longer period of coverage due to usage pattern/maintenance activities undertaken and uncertainties of costs over the period.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the challenges for effectiveness and sustainability of flood risk management strategies and technologies by critically reviewing flood management practices and reveal that reliable flood prediction is limited by the characterisation of floods that have multiple causes and hydrological uncertainties due to variability in climate and river morphology.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of moisture in flax fibres on the overall quality of epoxy/flax biocomposites was analyzed by mechanical and micro-structural analysis.
