A simple, effective, and practical constitutive model for cohesive fracture of fiber reinforced
concrete is proposed by differentiating the aggregate bridging zone and the fiber bridging …

This paper presents experimental and theoretical investigations on the stress–strain and
load–deflection behavior of Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA) microfiber reinforced concrete …

The restrained shrinkage ring test has been used to assess the shrinkage cracking potential
of concrete mixtures and to assess the influence of mixture proportions, admixtures, and the …

The focus of this research effort was characterization of the flexural and tensile properties of
a specific ultra-high-strength, fiber-reinforced concrete material. The material exhibited a …

Concrete is a material widely used in Civil Engineering due to its good resistance capacity
and durability. Even thought engineers have designed the reinforcement of concrete …

Nucleation of intragranular cracks during low cycle fatigue is governed by various micro-
structural phenomena. Complex dislocation arrangements and rearrangements have been …

Among the large variety of methods that have been applied to overcome the problems
encountered in cementitious materials fiber reinforcement is gaining large attraction owing …

This paper presents results from a recent study in which a finite element model was used for
predicting the performance of restrained shrinkage cracking in concrete slabs. The slabs will …

A three-dimensional model for the analysis of RC members, with particular reference to the
cracked stage, is proposed in terms of secant stiffness matrix. This formulation has been …
