Design and evaluation of a novel variable-length stepped scarf repair technique using a cohesive damage model (2024)
Journal Article

The advantages of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) are well established, but repairing CFRP components remains difficult and costly, posing challenges for industries like aerospace. This paper explores the design, modelling, inspection, and t... Read More about Design and evaluation of a novel variable-length stepped scarf repair technique using a cohesive damage model.

Experimental investigation of buckling and post-buckling behaviour of repaired composite laminates under in-plane shear loading (2024)
Journal Article

The performance of Ramped Scarf (RS) and Stepped Scarf (SS) repair schemes for highly loaded composite structures has been extensively studied under compressive, tensile, and flexural loadings. However, there is a lack of research on the buckling and...

An experimental investigation of tensile residual strength of repaired composite laminates after low velocity impact (2024)
Journal Article

Low Velocity Impact (LVI) of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) components are common during the manufacture and in-service life of aerostructures. However, the resulting effect on structural mechanical properties has not been extensively studied...

Experimental study of bonded, bolted, and hybrid bonded-bolted single lap shear joints with woven CFRP adherends (2024)
Journal Article

This paper presents an extensive experimental performance study of bonded joints (BJs), only bolted joints (OBJs) and hybrid bonded-bolted joints (HJs). For each joint type, three test configurations are considered: namely, short, medium and long ove...

Effect of interlayer thickness on mechanical properties of steel/polymer/steel laminates fabricated by roll bonding technique (2024)
Journal Article

Nowadays, metal/polymer/metal laminates are extensively used in various industries due to their unparalleled properties. In this study, the roll bonding process was employed for lamination of low carbon steel (St14) and semi-melted thermoplastic poly...
