Abstract
Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has been extensively used in civil engineering for applications such as reinforcing and retrofitting various architectural materials. Therefore, understanding the degradation of CFRP under high temperatures is important. This study aims to investigate the thermomechanical and microstructural properties of CFRP plates at elevated temperatures up..... More

Abstract
SnSe₂ alloys have been investigated in recent times as potential n-type thermoelectric materials. In this study, the thermoelectric transport properties of a series of Sb-doped SnSe₂, Sn(Se_1-xSb_x)₂ (x = 0, 0.015, 0.03, 0.045, 0.06) alloys are investigated. The electrical conductivity was generally enhanced with Sb doping owing to a large..... More

Abstract
The addition of Cu to layered Bi₂Te₃-based thermoelectric alloys has been studied as an effective way to enhance thermoelectric transport properties. In this study, the influence of adding Cu to Bi₂Se₃ alloys, which have the same rhombohedral crystal structure as Bi₂Te₃, was investigated by synthesizing a series of Cu_xBi₂Se₃ (x..... More
