In the scope of this study, the capability of particle image velocimetry (PIV) method to monitor cracking behavior of cement-based materials was investigated. Load-crack opening width curves for beam specimens were obtained both from conventional measureme ...
Continuous-fiber ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are of interest as hot-section components in gas turbine engines due to their refractoriness and low density relative to metallic alloys. In service, CMCs will be subjected to spatially inhomogeneous temper ...
Ferritic/martensitic steels are candidate materials for fusion reactor structural components, liquid metal containers of spallation neutron sources, and accelerator driven systems, with good radiation resistance and thermo-mechanical properties. However, e ...
This research investigated the evolution of tensile, hardness, and fracture properties of Eurofer97 tempered martensitic steel following neutron irradiation. The irradiation-hardening was measured with Vickers hardness tests on broken parts of sub-sized co ...
Quenched and self-tempered (QST) steel reinforcement bars (rebars) are manufactured by Thermex or Tempcore processes. Characterization studies of QST rebars are mostly limited to reveal the hardened outer layer and some improved mechanical properties compa ...
A large portion of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges in the western world were built in the second half of the last century. RC bridge deck slabs are nowadays often subjected to increased traffic loading and volume than originally designed for and thus, ste ...
With the advance of technology, TBMs are becoming more versatile and TBM tunnelling has become a common tunnelling method. As TBM tunnelling is a special excavation method depending on the interaction between machine and rock mass under a certain geologica ...
Our study presents a set of form-finding procedures to explore curved structures made from interlaced panels. Interlacing introduces a particular coupling between assembly components which has to be formulated along with a pertinent flexible body model. We ...
The choice of a particular (an appropriate) fatigue theory for composite materials and structures is based on the material’s behavior under the given loading pattern and the experience of the user. One of the most explicit and straightforward ways to repre ...
This paper investigates different tensile fracture initiation criteria on the plane-strain configuration of a defect-free openhole wellbore. It aims to model the effect of the internal pressurization of a wellbore drilled in the direction of one of the pri ...
