Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) employed as reinforcement of polymeric matrices can
increase elastic modulus, stiffness and strength of a composite. In this work, the assessment …

The main purpose of this work is to analyze the elastic properties (ie Young's modulus and
Poisson's ratio) of gypsum specimens manufactured by traditional methods (non-industrial …

This article makes a comparison between different Digital Image Correlation methods to
determinate the main mechanical characteristics of composite materials. More specifically …

This work aims to investigate different predictive models for estimating the unconfined
compressive strength and the maximum peak strain of non-structural recycled concretes …

The use of recycled aggregates in the manufacture of concrete is presented as a solution to
reduce the consumption of resources and waste in the construction sector and contribute to …

The determination of plywood bonding quality by shear testing is one of the most commonly
used and informative tests, alongside bending strength, to characterise this compound …

This work is subjected to the development of a method to identify the elasticity tensor of
homogeneous and heterogeneous materials. The materials are created in the form of …

As one of the most successful techniques in experimental mechanics, digital image
correlation (DIC) has been widely used to measure the motion and deformation of solid …

The present work investigated the manufacture of elements such as water tanks from
recycled concrete for applications where industries require water heating. This proposal …
