Surface crack growth in metallic pipes reinforced with Fibre-Reinforced Polymers subjected to cyclic loads: An analytical approach

This paper introduces a novel analytical approach aimed at predicting the growth of surface cracks in metallic pipes reinforced with Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) subjected to cyclic bending and/or tension loads. The primary objective of this study is to develop a comprehensive analytical model that accounts for multiple factors...
