Damage tolerance design approach such as the fatigue crack propagation approach
provides a more realistic solution for fatigue problems in concrete to overcome the …

The computational power allows nowadays the development of mesoscopic models of
concrete, based on finite element or lattices approaches, which represent the contribution of …

To study the effect of loading rate on the fracture behavior, three-point bending fracture tests
of concrete with loading rates of 0.0001 mm/s, 0.001 mm/s, 0.01 mm/s and 0.1 mm/s were …

Understanding the properties of concrete under load is essential for assessing the stability
and serviceability of buildings. In this work, the uniaxial compression test of concrete was …

As a new type of trenchless material, non-water reacting grouting polymer has been widely
used in the reinforcement and trenchless rehabilitation of concrete infrastructure …

In this paper, the acoustic emission (AE) signals of coal ruptures were evaluated under the
condition of uniaxial compression, and then the spectral, energy and fractal features of the …

Comprehensive fracture tests of notched three-point-bending (3-pb) concrete specimens
have recently been reported by Çağlar and Şener (2016), which covers specimen size W …

To study the damage evolution mechanism of gas-bearing coal and formation causes of
acoustic emission signals during this process, the loaded experiments of gas-bearing coal …

The mechanical behavior of earth concrete for sustainable construction has been studied in
this paper. The effect of flax fibers on the fracture behavior has been monitored using digital …

One of the main interests of the Acoustic Emission (AE) technique is its capability to detect
and localise damage in structures. In this paper, the accuracy of AE sources localisation in …
