Piezoelectric material transducers can work as an actuator or sensor. Generally, the actuator
will be used to repair the structure, and the sensor will be used to find the health condition. In …

The advent of digital image and volume correlation has attracted wide use in fracture
mechanics. The full‐field nature of digital image and volume correlation allows for the …

The incorporation of waste rubber into concrete has significant environmental value.
However, a hydrophobic waste rubber surface results in poor adhesion to concrete, which …

In this work, digital photoelasticity technique is used to estimate the crack tip fracture
parameters for different crack configurations. Conventionally, only isochromatic data …

This paper deals with the acquisition of the crack evolution and propagation behaviors of the
compacted tailing soils from full-field displacement fields by incorporating two-dimensional …

Tracking the crack tip position in crack growth is a key and difficult problem in calculating
mixed-mode I–II dynamic stress intensity factors based on displacement field obtained by …

Due to the accelerating effect of chloride and sulfate on the hydration of clinker, seawater-
mixed cement (SC) paste is more prone to brittle cracking. Herein, this research …

In recent years, carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has been widely used to improve
the fatigue behavior of steel structures, while most relevant studies were focused on steel …

The objective of this study was to investigate the coupled dynamics of a collapsing bubble
and the motion of a nearby elastic plate at different initial distances. This was achieved using …

Digital photoelasticity is used for the experimental evaluation of the strain intensity factor for
a rigid line inclusion embedded in an elastic matrix. The multi-parameter stress field …
