Effects of parameters controlling the impact resistance behavior of the GFRP fabric impregnated with a shear thickening fluid

This study investigates the low-velocity impact behavior of the glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) fabric impregnated with a shear thickening fluid (STF). Low-velocity impact tests were conducted on eight GFRPs and eight GFRP-STF composite specimens. The results show that the STF could improve th...
