Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of sandwich panels with various polyurethane foam-cores and ribs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated three potential core alternatives for glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) foam-core sandwich panels and found that the Type 3 core possessed a higher strength and stiffness than the other two types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testing and Evaluation of Polyurethane-Based GFRP Sandwich Bridge Deck Panels with Polyurethane Foam Core

TL;DR: In this article, a trapezoidal-shaped polyurethane foam core with a thermoprocessor was used for small-scale prototype deck panels under monotonic and fatigue bending.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigating the effects of seismic isolators on steel asymmetric structures considering soil-structure interaction

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the behavior of asymmetric sliding buildings with steel moment frame systems subject to earthquake loading (both horizontal and vertical), while taking into account the effects of soil-structure interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Testing and evaluation of full scale fiber-reinforced polymer bridge deck panels incorporating a polyurethane foam core

TL;DR: In this paper, a fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bridge deck panel that incorporates a polyurethane foam core was developed for accelerated bridge construction and repair, which was tested under monotonic loading and compared to applicable FRP design equations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Behavior of GFRP bridge deck panels infilled with polyurethane foam under various environmental exposure

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of polyurethane foam-infill bridge deck panels (PU sandwich panels) after being exposed to various environmental conditions was investigated, including ultraviolet radiation, deicing solution at both room temperature and elevated temperature, and thermal cycling.
