Abstract:
Cílem této diplomové práce je lépe porozumět konceptu únavového poškození damage tolerance zmapováním všech možných vlivů na lomovou houževnatost vláknového kompozitu s polymerní matricí. Toho je dosaženo provedením zkoušek za různých podmínek (např. změna parametrů měření, mód zatížení, pořadí vrstev a materiál) a monitorováním odlišností v šíření trhliny. Na základě dat získaných během těchto testů je určena lomová houževnatost. Potenciální rozdíly jsou zkonzultovány a porovnány s ostatními vzorky.

Abstract:
I dagsläget är de flesta broar i Sverige tillverkade med betong eller stål. Dessa broar är många gånger förknippade med stora kostnader som ofta beror på underhåll och reparation. FRP, som står för Fiber Reinforced Polymer, är ett relativt nytt material i bärande stommar men är ett väl etablerat material i förstärkningssammanhang. I Europa och i synnerhet Nederländerna finns det flertal broar byggda i FRP. Men på grund av brist på normer och regelverk att luta sig emot sker det sällan någon form av brokonstruktion med FRP i Sverige. Detta examensarbete syftar till att undersöka befintliga norm

Abstract:
Carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) have gained widespread popularity as a lightweight, high-strength alternative to traditional materials. The unique anisotropic properties of CFRP make processing difficult, especially using conventional methods. This study investigates laser cutting by ablation as an alternative by comparing two near-infrared laser systems to a typical mechanical machining process. This research has potential applications in the automotive and aerospace industries, where CFRPs are particularly desirable for weight savings and fuel efficiency. First, a CNC mill was used

Abstract:
L’intento di questa tesi è fornire un andamento di alcune proprietà dei materiali compositi in fibra di carbonio, CFRP, utilizzati soprattutto nell’ambito aeronautico e navale, esposti quindi a condizioni ambientali specifiche di variazione ciclica della temperatura. Lo studio è effettuato sulle prove di caratterizzazione statica, di compressione, flessione in tre punti e taglio interlaminare, che generano risultati sulla resistenza delle fibre e della matrice e sul modulo elastico a compressione e trazione del composito.

Abstract:
There is a growing need for a cost-effective, durable repair system that can be used for the repair and strengthening of steel bridges. Recently, high modulus carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) have been developed with a modulus of elasticity approximately two times greater than that of steel. Externally bonded high modulus CFRP materials have successfully been used to increase the elastic stiffness and ultimate capacity of steel-concrete composite beams However, since the technology is relatively new, the detailed behavior of steel bridge members strengthened with high modulus CFRP is no
