Abstract

Fatigue considerations properties of aligned fibres influence of matrix and fabric influence of spectral loading influence of moisture and impact damage glass and hybrid fibre performance fatigue properties of wood composites benchmark tests effect of scale response of blade roots to high-bending moments influence of moisture on GFRP bolted joints influence of complex loading on blade-rooted joints evaluation of T bolt root attachment comparison of fatigue curves for glass composite laminates recommendations for good working practices
