Abstract:This paper presents the advantages of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in fortifying the glass fiber reinforced polymeric (GFRP) composites. Bolted steel straps are utilized at the edges of composite plate to create clamped conditions in the test setup. To reduce the uncertainties induced by bolt attachments, a genetic algorithm based model updating has been carried out by adopting artificial linear springs at the margins to create more balance between theory and reality. After checking the validity of plate's results,… Show more
