The fracture properties of concrete are greatly affected by strain rate, and changes in fracture
parameters can reflect the crack resistance and failure mechanism of concrete. In this study …

The study on dynamic shear behavior of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP)-concrete interface is
of great significance for the performance evaluation and design of FRP externally …

Interfacial bond behaviour among FRP and concrete is a crucial aspect in determining the
strengthening performance of FRP. A data-driven approach is proposed to automatically …

Continuous basalt fiber (CBF) is an outstanding inorganic fiber produced from nature, which
has a wide range of applications in the field of armor protection of national defense military …

Predicting the cracking behavior of concrete under different strain rates through fracture
parameters has been a longstanding topic of interest. In this study, the effect of concrete …

Intermediate crack (IC) debonding is a common failure mode of externally bonded (EB) FRP-
strengthened RC beams. This debonding failure initiates at an intermediate crack and …

Basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) has been applied for strengthening concrete
structures. However, studies on reinforced concrete (RC) slabs strengthened by BFRP strips …

Sulfate ions in saltwater can considerably deteriorate the strength and durability of
reinforced concrete (RC). To date, there has been no study that systematically investigates …

In the last 20 years, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) have become a common
alternative to strengthening and retrofitting. The performance of the strengthened specimens …

It is well‐known that shear failure is a collapse mechanism that is the riskiest, fastest, and
catastrophic and occurs with no visible signs of damage or prior warning for RC beams …
