Journal ArticleDOI
Microstructures and mechanical properties of polymer modified mortars under distinct mechanisms
Hongyan Ma,Zongjin Li +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, two types of acrylic latexes, polyacrylate and polyurethane modified PA, are investigated in their influences on mechanical properties of mortar under different interaction mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling of quasi-brittle fracture: Boundary and size effect
TL;DR: In this article, a boundary effect model for scaling of quasi-brittle fracture is used to study the common size effect on strength and fracture toughness of finite-sized specimens, and the transition from the strength to toughness criterion is then given by the asymptotic solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size effect on specific fracture energy of concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the size effect on the specific fracture energy of concrete can be adequately modelled by an uneven fracture energy distribution along the crack path induced by the specimen boundary influence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of waste rubber utilization on the fracture and steel–concrete bond strength properties of concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical and fracture properties of concretes in which the natural aggregate was replaced with two types, crumb rubber and/or tire chips, of waste scrap tire rubber were experimentally investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-healing efficiency of cementitious materials containing microcapsules filled with healing adhesive: mechanical restoration and healing process monitored by water absorption.
TL;DR: The results demonstrated that the capsule-containing cement paste can achieve the various mechanical restorations depending on the curing condition and the degree of damage, but the voids generated by the surfactants compromised the strength.
