Load history effects in fibre-reinforced polymer composite materials

Abdolvahid Movahedirad

Today, it is widely accepted that fatigue is one of the most common failure mechanisms in structural components, and pure static failure is rarely observed. Engineering structures are subjected to complex mechanical fatigue loading histories, which cause d ...

Can timber lower the environmental impact of tall buildings?

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Catherine Elvire L. De Wolf

The building sector is responsible for 30% of anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (UNEP, 2009). Recent energy efficiency measures have helped reduce the operational carbon related to the use phase of the building, but a lack of industry attention ...
