This paper reviews the development of pseudo strain-hardening cement based short fiber
composites employing the Performance Driven Design Approach. The micromechanics …

The stress-crack width relationship has been determined experimentally for concretes
reinforced with two types of fibres, steel and polypropylene, of various fibre volume fractions …

The objective of this paper is to verify a mechanical model for the failure of plain or fiber-
reinforced concrete shear key joints through the comparison of the model's prediction with …

In an experimental investigation of the pull-out of synthetic fibres with branched structure, it
was generally observed that the force and energy of fibre pull-out are greater than those for …

The fracture properties of a composite material reinforced with discontinuous fibers depend
on how the fibers are oriented with respect to the crack plane. If the fibers are randomly …
