A recent article published in Sustainability explored the impact of novel cross-sectional configurations on low-cost bamboo composite (LCBC) structural members using both experimental and numerical ...

Researchers have developed vascularized structural composites, creating materials that are lightweight and strong with potential for self-healing, self-cooling, stealth and more. The team developed a ...

In order to build new infrastructure and to build new structures, advanced fibre-reinforced polymer composites have become essential materials. Advanced fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites for ...

Structural engineers have long imagined the day when materials used in an aircraft, a wind turbine blade or a bridge could sense if they had been strained to the point of damage, reducing their ...
