Abstract
Abstract The aim of this article is to investigate the failure and enhancement mechanism of bolt-strengthening glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) T-joints under quasi-static tension. One-step molding technology based on the vacuum-assisted resin infusion process is carried out to fabricate the GFRP T-joints structures. Then, a special fixture and constraint condition are set up to take the quasi-static tensile test with high reliability. Moreover, it is demonstrated that the T-joints structures may decrease their bearing capacity, resulting in interlaminar delamination at the corner region. Further, to strengthen the T-joints, the bolts are employed to effectively prevent the initiation and propagation of interlaminar delamination in the tensile loading. At the same time, as their enhancement and failure mechanisms are revealed deeply, the strengthening method is optimized as well.
期刊介绍：
Science and Engineering of Composite Materials is a quarterly publication which provides a forum for discussion of all aspects related to the structure and performance under simulated and actual service conditions of composites. The publication covers a variety of subjects, such as macro and micro and nano structure of materials, their mechanics and nanomechanics, the interphase, physical and chemical aging, fatigue, environmental interactions, and process modeling. The interdisciplinary character of the subject as well as the possible development and use of composites for novel and specific applications receives special attention.
