Influence of fibre distribution and orientation on the flexural behaviour of beams cast from flowable hybrid polymer–steel FRC
TLDR
In this paper, the performance of full-scale beams cast from flowable hybrid polymer FRC with regard to fiber distribution and orientation was analyzed, and it was found that fibres, even combined, distribute differently by type: steel fibres tend to segregate after a certain flow length while polymer fibres distribute evenly.About:

Polymer lattice-reinforcement for enhancing ductility of concrete
TL;DR: In this article, a 3D printed polymeric lattices made of either polylactic acid (PLA) or acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) were used to increase the ductility of ultra-high performance concrete by reinforcing it with 3D-printed polymeric panels.

The need to consider flexural post-cracking creep behavior of macro-synthetic fiber reinforced concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the post-cracking creep response of PFRC beams under flexural load in comparison with that of steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams and explore how the pre-crack opening and the environmental condition affect the long term behavior of each material.
