TL;DR: In this paper, peak amplitude and peak frequency were selected as the best cluster-definition features from nine AE parameters by Laplacian score and correlation analysis, principal component analysis and k-means++ algorithm and repeatability and similarity analysis of the clusters in AE registration of different specimens.

TL;DR: In this paper, a procedure for the numerical evaluation of the mechanical properties of woven fabric laminates is presented, where three-dimensional finite element models are used in two steps to predict both the stiffness and the strength of woven fabrics.

TL;DR: In this article, the degradation of the mechanical and aesthetical performance of pultruded Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composites applied in building construction was monitored through a process of accelerated artificial ageing in a climatic chamber, simulating the combined effect of high temperature, freeze-thaw cycles, moisture and ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

TL;DR: In this article, tension-tension fatigue behavior of a single-ply non-crimp 3D orthogonal weave E-glass composite and of a laminated composite reinforced with four plies of a standard plain weave fabric was studied.
