Abstract

Fibre-reinforced polymers (FRP) are a relatively young group of materials and this leads to a gap in knowledge about properties, failure mechanisms and failure criteria. Reliable failure prediction methods are especially required for estending the range of applications. In parallel the development of non-destructive tests (NDT) for continuous health monitoring of materials would result in structures of improved durability and safety.
