The prompt removal of ice is crucial to the safe operation of maritime equipment. However, traditional deicing approaches such as steam jets or manual tools are costly in terms of energy consumption and human labor. If the ice interfacial strength can be...

Bending deformation gives rise to interwire slippage for spiral strands subjected to multi-axial loads, and further induces wear or fatigue phenomena in practice. The interwire friction would resist bending deformation and lead to uneven tension distribu...

This study analyzes the composite laminated T-beams using the composite beam and laminated composite plate theories. The theoretical formula was derived assuming that the composite T-beam has one- and two-dimensional (1D and 2D) structures. The 1D analys...
