Abstract
This paper presents an experimental investigation of the performances of concrete-filled glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) and GFRP externally wound steel circular tubes, subjected to freeze-thaw cycles ranging from -18°C to 18°C. The variation in hoop strains of the tubes during the freeze-thaw cycles was monitored by embedded fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) strain sensors in GFRP layers or between GFRP and steel tube. The residual hoop strain after each freeze-thaw cycle indicates the possible degradation of GFRP materials, such as cracks, debonding of GFRP-concrete or GFRP-steel due to mismatch of the coefficient of thermal expansion, as well as water immersion. A synergistic effect of FRP and steel tubes on the confinement of inside concrete was revealed, resulting in well-improved ductility. After 56 freeze-thaw cycles, remarkable degradation were found in the axial strength, modulus, and strain for concrete-filled GFRP tubes. However, the GFRP-steel tube system showed a negligible reduction in the ultimate axial strain by the freeze-thaw cycles with less degradation in the axial strength and modulus.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
