Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of hydrostatic pressure on the interlaminar fracture toughness of carbon/epoxy composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results from such tests performed in a specially designed pressure vessel mounted on a standard test machine, which allows pressures up to 1000 bars (100 MPa) to be applied during mechanical testing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermoplastic Composite Cylinders for Underwater Applications
TL;DR: In this article, a study of thermoplastic matrix composites has been performed to investigate their use in underwater applications such as oceanography, submarine, and sub-sea offshore structures.
Book ChapterDOI
Aging of composites in water: Comparison of five materials in terms of absorption kinetics and evolution of mechanical properties
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results for wet aging of five glass fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites at four temperatures (5, 20, 40, and 60°C) at both atmospheric pressure and 10 MPa hydrostatic pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical ageing of epoxy in a wet environment: Coupling between plasticization and physical ageing
TL;DR: In this paper, the physical aging and plasticization processes are coupled in an amine-based epoxy and a step-by-step approach is then used to evaluate how the plasticization process induced by the presence of water is affected by physical ageing and vice versa.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined seasonal changes in water quality and aquatic plant cover of floodplain waterholes, and related changes to variation of waterhole depth and visitation by livestock.
