Rassini’s 1+C Hybrid leaf spring features a single steel parabolic main plate and a flat glass fiber composite helper plate to provide suspension on the rear wheels of the Ford F-150 pickup truck.

There is a growing interest in using coupled composite plate shear walls/ concrete-filled (CPSW/CF) for high-rise building construction, particularly to optimize the design for wind and/or seismic ...

The tall shear wall system was developed through a series of studies and advancements by Magnusson Klemencic Associates (MKA). “The system is an evolution of many years of our work with composite ...

Composite bipolar plates are critical components in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), serving as both electrical conductors and structural supports. Recent developments in composite ...

Usually, it takes a lot of heavy, cumbersome metal to stop a bullet. Conventional body armor uses heavy steel or ceramic plates inside a kevlar vest to stop the massive kinetic energy of an ...

The standard and complex carbide ranges of welded overlay plates from Welding Alloys feature wear-resistant properties that surpass those of quenched, tempered abrasion-resistant steels. Features such ...

The market for composites in sporting goods and recreation applications is vast, including carbon fiber composite plates in athletic shoes (top left), bicycle frames and other bike components (top ...

This project aims to develop and validate bolted splice details for C-PSW/CF, a structural system designed for non-seismic regions like New York City and Boston. The focus is on areas where bolted ...

Huntsman’s partners used these new resin systems to develop a new generation of fuel cells for a wide variety of needs and applications. They won a JEC Award in the Raw Material category for this ...
