The present study intends to investigate the effect of temperature on cumulative fatigue damage of laminated fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. The effect of temperature on fatigue damage is formulated based on a previously proposed residual stiffness fatigue damage model. The fatigue strength of FRP composite laminates is also formulated to have temperature dependent parameters. The research work is divided into three main parts; the first part reviews the fatigue damage mechanism is fibre-reinforced composites based on stiffness degradation. The recent residual stiffness of Varvani-Shirazi was used as the backbone structure of damage analysis in this thesis. This model is capable of damage assessment while the effects of maximum stress, stress ratio and fibre orientation of FRP composites were recognized. The Varvani-Shirazi damage model was further developed to assess fatigue damage of FRP composites at various temperatures (T). Inputs of the damage model are temperature dependent parameters including Young's modulus (E), ultimate tensile strength(ðult) and fatigue life (Nf). As the next part of the proposed analysis, the temperature dependency of each parameter is formulated, and the relations of E-T and ðult-T are substituted in the Varvani-Shirazi fatigue model. Finally, all terms and equations are evaluated with the experimental data available in the literature. Six sets fatigue data were used in this thesis to evaluate fatigue of FRP specimens. The predicted results were found to be in good agreement with the experimentally obtained data. The proposed fatigue damage model was found promising to predict the fatigue damage of unidirectional (UD) and women FRP composites at different temperatures. Temperature dependant parameters of Young's modulus, ultimate tensile strength, and S-N diagram were also found to be responsive when used of UD, cross-ply, and quasi-isotropic FRP laminates.

In this paper, a non-water dyeing process using two organic solvents with temperature-dependent miscibility was developed. Fixation of three conventional reactive dyes on cotton yarn could reach 97% using one dyeing bath consisting of two solvents. Only one washing step at room temperature was needed to get satisfactory fastness after the fixation process. In particular, the two selected organic solvents could interconvert from immiscible to miscible when the temperature interchanged from 30 to 90℃. This unique physical property makes the separation and recycling processes of organic solvents extremely easy and energy saving. A 1 kg yarn package was dyed using this dyeing process: the color deviation (△E) of the inner and outer yarns was less than 1.0 and the tensile strength decreased by 8.5–18.0%. The results show that this dyeing process is extremely promising.
