High-performance fiber-reinforced concrete: a review

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a comprehensive review of the mechanism of crack formation and propagation, compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, stress-strain behavior, tensile strength (TS), flexural strength, drying shrinkage, creep, electrical resistance, and chloride migration resistance of high performance fiber reinforced concrete.

The effect of steel and polypropylene fibers on the chloride diffusivity and drying shrinkage of high-strength concrete

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the low fiber content of polypropylene and hooked-end steel fibers on the properties of high-strength concrete was investigated, and the results showed that hybridization of two types of fibers was an effective way to improve the concrete and specifically reduce the drying shrinkage compared with that of the plain concrete.

Mechanical properties tests and multiscale numerical simulations for basalt fiber reinforced concrete

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the length and content of basalt fiber on the fundamental mechanical properties of concrete were investigated by multi-scale simulation, and a damage constitutive model was developed in accordance with the Mori-Tanaka homogenization theory and progressive damage theory.

Improving corrosion resistance of steel rebars in concrete with marble and granite waste dust as partial cement replacement

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of marble and granite waste dust (MGWD) as partial cement replacement (up to 20%) on the mechanical and corrosion behaviour of concrete specimens was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Review of Corrosion and Protection of Steel in Concrete

TL;DR: In this article, the mechanism of corrosion in reinforced concrete and its thermodynamic and kinetic behaviour is discussed and compared with different corrosion prevention and protection techniques available and recommended by BS 1504-9:2008, including the use of corrosion inhibitors, alternative reinforcement, steel and concrete coating and electrochemical techniques.

The mathematics of diffusion

John Crank
TL;DR: Though it incorporates much new material, this new edition preserves the general character of the book in providing a collection of solutions of the equations of diffusion and describing how these solutions may be obtained.

Fibre Reinforced cementitious Composites

TL;DR: In this article, the mechanical behaviour of fibre reinforced cementitious materials with different fibres is investigated. But they do not discuss the properties of different types of fiber reinforced cement composites.

Water Permeability and Autogenous Healing of Cracks in Concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of self-healing in cracks on the functional reliability of structures subjected to water-pressure loads and showed that the formation of calcite in the crack is almost the sole cause for the autogenous healing.
