Environmental effects on the mechanical properties of E-glass and S-glass fiber epoxy composite ring specimens used in aircraft fuel pipes

An experimental investigation was performed in predicting the consequences of the exposure to seawater and moisture absorption on the mechanical properties of two different GFRE pipe rings made of E-glass and S-glass fiber and utilized in aircraft fuel pipe line system. Filament winded tubular compo...
