Journal ArticleDOI

Application of bacteria as self-healing agent for the development of sustainable concrete

TL;DR: In this article, a specific group of alkali-resistant spore-forming bacteria related to the genus Bacillus was selected for this purpose, and the bacterial spores directly added to the cement mixture remained viable for a period up to 4 months.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fracture simulations of concrete using lattice models : computational aspects

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of lattice element type and lattice orientation on the fracture pattern was investigated by simulating a shear loading experiment on a concrete plate, and the effect of element resolution on fracture results was also investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simple lattice model for numerical simulation of fracture of concrete materials and structures

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model is presented for simulating fracture in heterogeneous materials such as concrete and rock, and the typical failure mechanism, crack face bridging, found in concrete and other materials is simulated by use of a lattice model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental and numerical analysis of micromechanisms of fracture of cement-based composites

TL;DR: In this paper, the crack face bridges are flexural ligaments between ovelapping crack tips, and the failure of these ligaments occurs in a stable and controlled manner because the two overlapping crack tips shield each other.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-healing behavior of strain hardening cementitious composites incorporating local waste materials

TL;DR: In this paper, the self-healing behavior of a series of pre-cracked fiber reinforced strain hardening composites incorporating blast furnace slag and limestone powder with relatively high water/binder ratio is investigated, focusing on the recovery of its deflection capacity.
