Its unique chemical structure and physical properties directly contributes to the microstructure and mechanical properties of carbon fibers, and therefore affect the overall performance of pultruded composites. This study systematically investigated the influence of PAN precursor properties on the degree of graphitization, surface morphology and mechanical properties of carbon fibers by regulating the molecular weight distribution, stretching ratio and impurity content of PAN precursor, and analyzed the mechanism of action of carbon fiber properties on the interfacial bonding strength and tensile/bending properties of composites in combination with the pultrusion process. The results showed that when the filament stretchability was increased to 4.5 times, the axial orientation of carbon fibers increased by 18% and the tensile strength reached 520 MPa; Filaments with impurity content below 0.3% increase carbon fiber yield by 5.2% and interlaminar shear strength of composites by 23%. This study provides a theoretical basis for raw material screening and process optimization of high-performance carbon fibers and their composites.</p> Zheng Wei Guoping Hao Yongqiang Zhang Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) 2025-09-08 2025-09-08 9 4 1 8 10.26689/jwa.v9i4.11839 Application of Carbon Fiber Composite Materials for Automotive Lightweighting https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JWA/article/view/11818 <p>The automobile industry is the first to form a typical representative of the global industry in modern industry, with the increase of the national emphasis on the environment, the automobile industry was regarded as an important energy consumption and one of the sources of environmental pollution, the policy of energy conservation and emission reduction requirements for the automobile industry are becoming stricter over the years, energy conservation and emission reduction has becomes the main direction of product optimization in the automobile industry in recent years.

This paper compares the seismic performance of normal concrete columns and UHPC columns by introducing ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC). The shear span ratio (2.4-4.4) and axial compression ratio (0.10, 0.36) were used as variables, and the bearing capacity, ductility and failure mode were analyzed through low-cycle reciprocating loading studys. The results showed that UHPC significantly improved the bearing capacity, stiffness and energy dissipation capacity of the column, and suppressed the crushing and spalling of concrete. When the shear span ratio is 2.4 and the axial compression ratio is 0.36, the failure mode of UHPC columns was changed from shear failure to flexural shear failure. Thus this study can become a reference for the seismic design of UHPC columns.</p> Jiaqi Duan Qiaoling Fu Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) 2025-09-04 2025-09-04 9 4 28 34 10.26689/jwa.v9i4.11810 Research on Airborne Point Cloud Data Registration Using Urban Buildings as an Example https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JWA/article/view/11812 <p>Airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is an evolving high-tech active remote sensing technology that has the capability to acquire large-area topographic data and can quickly generate DEM (Digital Elevation Model) products.

The results indicate that single-sided repaired beams have certain advantages in crack resistance performance, but are more disadvantageous in ultimate bearing capacity, with obvious debonding phenomenon before the end of loading. Compared with single-sided reinforcement, the cracking load of the three-sided reinforced beam increased by an average of 1.85 times, the ultimate bearing capacity increased by an average of 177.5%, and a good UHPC-RC combination effect could be formed, which could work synergistically until the end of loading. The degree of pre damage has a significant impact on the crack resistance performance of reinforced beams, while its impact on the ultimate bearing capacity is relatively limited. When the pre splitting width of the RC beam increases from 0.2 mm to 0.4 mm, the ultimate bearing capacity decreases by 28.33%. Finally, a calculation formula for the ultimate flexural bearing capacity of damaged RC beams reinforced with UHPC was proposed, taking into account the degree of pre damage to the RC beams and the three-sided repair. The calculated results showed a high degree of agreement with the experimental data.</p> Xuezhi Wang Sanzhao Xiao Shixun Wang Shuwen Deng Copyright (c) 2025 Author(s) 2025-09-08 2025-09-08 9 4 103 109 10.26689/jwa.v9i4.11844 Design Strategies for Complex Mountain Highway Bridge https://bbwpublisher.com/index.php/JWA/article/view/11845 <p>This article discusses the design strategy of complex mountain highway bridges.
