Burst strength and impact performance on glass fibre reinforced epoxy (GRE) composite pipes/
The GRE composite pipes are commonly produced by the filament winding technique. After the composite specimens were cut into required size, it was immersed in 80C water for periods of 500, 1000, and 1500 h to simulate the ageing effects.

| Summary: | The GRE composite pipes are commonly produced by the filament winding technique. After the composite specimens were cut into required size, it was immersed in 80C water for periods of 500, 1000, and 1500 h to simulate the ageing effects. An instrumented impact testing machine with the drop weight system was used to carry out the impact tests. Then the impacted specimens proceed with internal hydrostatic monotonic burst tests to determine the deformation behaviour of the composite pipes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to analyse and characterize the inner and outer surface of the damage pipe wall. |
