Abstract: The development of high rockfill dams has imposed greater demands on the compaction quality of rockfill materials. However, because rockfill particles are subjected to crushing under the compaction of a high-powered roller, ...

Abstract: Mechanical deterioration of concrete structures by freeze–thaw cycles has been widely spotted, mainly in temperate zones. In order to incorporate the icing-induced microdefects into global damage, a poromechanical model ...

Abstract: In order to explore the deterioration characteristics of prestressed concrete under the coupling of freeze–thaw and corrosion, a series of aging tests and three-point bending tests was conducted. Furthermore, the deterioration ...
