Abstract: The kinetics of subcritical crack growth (SCG) in hardened cement pastes attacked simultaneously by mechanical damage and calcium leaching was experimentally investigated by a novel test approach in a recent study. Anchored ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel design concept for fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites consisting of three-dimensional (3D) printed cores and FRP helical skins as a means of ensuring adequate ductility relative to the ...
