This paper presents 20 years of research on failure of sheeting subjected to combined concentrated load and bending moment, performed at Technische Universiteit Eindhoven.
CWs were classified based on the type of sheeting (profiled, flat, and dry board) and the applied loading (axial, cyclic, lateral, impact, thermal, or a combination of any two).
Syrian Civil Defense, a local humanitarian rescue group that operates in rebel-held areas, posted a picture on its Facebook page of about a dozen bloodied bodies laid on the ground on plastic sheeting and said more than 45 had died in the attack, which it said used guided missiles.
