Mechanical behavior of CFRP partially confined coal cylinders under uniaxial compression. by Qingwen Li, Ling Li, Chuangchuang Pan, Yuqi Zhong, Fanfan Nie, Hao Yang

“…As the net spacing ratio decreases and the number of CFRP layers increases, the peak strength and deformation capacity of the coal cylinders are significantly improved, with the maximum enhancement rate reaching up to 409.36%. Under different confining conditions, the energy evolution pattern of CFRP-confined coal cylinders is generally consistent, with energy primarily accumulating in the form of elastic energy prior to reaching peak strength, and dissipated energy increasing sharply after peak strength is reached. …”
