A review on fly ash characteristics – Towards promoting high volume utilization in developing sustainable concrete

TL;DR: The use of fly ash in concrete dates back to the late 20th century and its advantages and disadvantages had been widely researched as mentioned in this paper, however, the level of replacement is still limited to a maximum of 35% of cement by mass.

A multiscale approach for modeling fatigue crack growth in concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, a linearized stress intensity factor (SIF) is derived for concrete through a multiscale approach by considering the predominant process zone mechanisms such as aggregate bridging and micro-cracking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Micromechanical analysis of concrete and reinforcing steel exposed to high temperature

TL;DR: In this paper, the micro-indentation results are obtained by performing grid indentation and then statistically analyzed through a deconvolution technique and a self-consistent homogenization scheme, to obtain the mechanical properties at macro-scale.

Determination of the back boundary effect on self-compacting concrete beams: bilinear and trilinear approaches

TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of linear elastic fracture mechanics depends on the extent of these inner and outer regions, and the suitability of applying bilinear and trilinear models in the separation of the inner regions by using the experimental results from self-compacting concrete beams.
