Review of fundamental assumptions of the Two-Phase model for aggregate interlocking in cracked concrete using numerical methods and experimental evidence

Aurelio Muttoni, Guillaume Anciaux, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Mohit Pundir, Max Tirassa

Aggregate interlocking allows transferring shear and normal stresses through open cracks, and is considered to significantly contribute to the force transfer in cracked concrete. The complex phenomenon depends on the roughness of cracked surfaces, where ma ...

Determination of midspan deflection by means of crack opening in steel fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (SFRCC) beams

Ardalan Hosseini

Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (FRC) toughness parameters, crucial for structural design, can be obtained either by using load–deflection or load–crack opening displacement(COD) relationships. Therefore, determination of midspan-deflection under a given crack w ...

A quantum-implementable neural network model

Edoardo Charbon, Lingli Wang

A quantum-implementable neural network, namely quantum probability neural network (QPNN) model, is proposed in this paper. QPNN can use quantum parallelism to trace all possible network states to improve the result. Due to its unique quantum nature, this m ...
