Behavior of GFRP-Wood Composite Sandwich Beam-Column Joints with Angle Steels by ZhiJin Xie, YuJun Qi, Hai Fang, WeiQing Liu

“…Six different connection system configurations were tested to understand the static behavior of the connection system under different parameters including the length of the beam-closed limb and the presence of ribs. The failure modes of the connection system obtained in tests were of three types: yield failure of the angle steels, local crushing failure of the GFRP-wood composite sandwich beam, and tensile failure of the bolt on the beam-closed limb. …”

Detection of Release Fabric Defects in Fiber-Reinforced Composites Using Through-Transmission Ultrasound by Gary LeMay, Enkhsaikhan Boldsaikhan

“…This paper leverages a novel threshold classifier to improve the detection of release fabric with through-transmission ultrasound (TTU), an inspection technique that operates without echo mode. Ultimately, this novel threshold classifier improves TTU inspection by offering greater sensitivity and detectability compared to conventional attenuation-based methods, particularly in the absence of echo mode and time-of-flight measurements. …”
