Low velocity impact performance of fiber-reinforced polymer impregnated with shear thickening fluid

In this study, the mechanical performance of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) impregnated with shear thickening fluid (STF) under low-velocity impact was investigated. Three types of FRPs, with basalt (BFRP), carbon (CFRP), and glass (GFRP) fibers were prepared and 20 wt% STF was impregnated into thes...
