To investigate the influence of corroded steel bars on seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns, eight full-scale RC columns were designed and fabricated, which were composed of one uncorroded RC column, three RC columns with longitudinal reinforcement corrosion and four stirrup-corroded RC columns. The electrochemical test was condu...

Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is one of important materials utilized against impacting threats. In this work, bulk UHMWPE specimens were fabricated in a compression molding chamber, and molding parameters such as pressure and temperature were varied in the specimen preparation stage to investigate the effect of molding parameter...

Layered metallic materials (LMMs) offer superior properties in comparison to their counterpart monolithic sheets. Single-point incremental forming (SPIF) has emerged as an economical solution to produce LMM parts. However, delamination can limit the formability of such parts. In this study, the delamination analysis during SPIF of layered sheets wa...

AbstractThe civil infrastructures constructed using self-compacting concrete (SCC) reinforced with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars are advocated for engineering applications due to corrosion resistance and environmental-friendly performance. The bond behavior between FRP reinforcement and SCC is a significant factor affecting the serviceability...

The nonlinear finite element analysis of pin-supported reinforced concrete slabs of moderate thickness is the main subject of this paper. This is an important issue of the mechanics of concrete structures. Thus, a nonlinear FE analysis of RC slab models subjected to punching shear was initiated and the comparison of the numerical and test results w...

The growth of lamellar structure during discontinuous precipitation occurs frequently by so-called go-and-stop fashion. The results of simulation combined with the changes of Cahn’s parameter C revealed two types of such motion. The process takes place in the successive stages which can be distinguished judging from the value of C parameter. For lo...

The combined effect of extrusion and multi-directional forging (MDF) was investigated on microstructure and mechanical properties of aluminum-based composite with 10, 15, and 20 wt% Mg2Si. In the casted Al–Mg2Si composites, the primary and eutectic Mg2Si particles are generally coarse which lead to decreasing their mechanical properties and formabi...

The paving asphalts have long been recognized to be capable of self-healing. The objective of this study was to evaluate the healing potential of asphalt binders and investigate its relationship with molecular characteristics in terms of composition and structures. Five neat and styrene–butadiene–styrene (SBS) modified asphalt binders were characte...

The current paper reports the results of experiments on deficient exterior reinforced concrete (RC) strong beam–weak column connections strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. Five RC-joint specimens with half-scale size were manufactured and tested subjected to constant axial and reversed cyclic quasi-static loads. These j...
