Abstract: Concrete structures often suffer from multiple dynamic loads, or prior to being subjected to dynamic loads have already withstood initial loads. The mechanical properties of concrete materials under dynamic loads may be ...

Abstract: To better understand the effect of initial static loading on the dynamic shear performance of concrete deep beams reinforced with basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars, a three-dimensional mesoscale numerical model ...

Abstract: Although there are numerous experimental studies of the size effect on nominal splitting tensile strength of concrete materials being performed, research on effect of specific material parameters involving maximum aggregate ...

Abstract: The bond behavior between steel bar and concrete is greatly affected by the properties of the concrete material and rebar. Compared with ambient temperatures, the mechanical characteristics of concrete material and rebar ...

Abstract: The axial compression performance of confined reinforced concrete columns in cryogenic temperature environments is affected by the mechanical properties of reinforcement and concrete materials. The properties of reinforcement ...
