A novel study of flexural behavior of short glass fibers as secondary reinforcements in GFRP composite

As the commercialization of fiber-reinforced polymer composites is gaining momentum, new strategies for improving their mechanical properties are constantly being investigated by researchers worldwide. The key to enhanced mechanical properties of FRP composites is improved load transfer capabilities and stronger interfacial bonding at the fiber/matrix interface. A novel idea to fabricate laminated composites with the short fiber modified epoxy...
