In recent decades, the need for high-performance and cost-effective concrete has received
considerable attention from both researchers and different construction industries due to the …

One of the fundamental aspects in cohesive zone modeling is the definition of the traction-
separation relationship across fracture surfaces, which approximates the nonlinear fracture …

To solve the key scientific problems such as low toughness and easy cracking of recycled
aggregate concrete (RAC), A new sustainable material (fiber-reinforced recycled aggregate …

Fiber reinforced cementitious composites (FRCC) have been widely used in the field of civil
engineering in terms of high-performance building material. The fracture mechanics has …

Fracture characteristics were used to effectively evaluate the performance of fiber-reinforced
cementitious composites. The fracture parameters provided the basis for crack stability …

In this study, the size effects on tensile properties and compressive strength of engineered
cementitious composites (ECC) were investigated via experimental studies. Plane (2-D) and …

Fiber reinforced shotcrete (FRS) is an essential method for engineering support such as
tunnels, slopes, and foundation pits. This study focuses on addressing the limitations of …

This paper presents the experimental and numerical studies of flexural-fracture behaviors of
steel fiber–reinforced rubber self-compacting concrete (SRSCC) materials. The scrap-tires …

The pressing need to reduce global carbon emissions together with recent advances in
automated manufacturing have driven a growing interest in functionally graded concrete. In …

This study develops functionally graded ultra-high performance cementitious composite
beams by applying the composite concepts of Ultra-high Performance Concrete (UHPC) …
