Predicting the contribution of recycled aggregate concrete to the shear capacity of beams without transverse reinforcement using artificial neural networks
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Although many researchers have studied the shear and flexural behavior of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) beams, code provisions have not been modified yet to take RAC into account. Therefore, the slow development of ...
Hybrid CFRP-steel for enhancing the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams
(King Saud University, 2020)
Hybrid use of Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites with conventional construction materials offers an ample opportunity to develop economical and high-performance structures. However, anchoring and debonding ...
NLFEA of Sulfate-Damaged Circular CFT Steel Columns Confined with CFRP Composites and Subjected to Axial and Cyclic Lateral Loads
(MDPI, 2022)
It is rather costly and difficult to experimentally evaluate the performance of concrete-filled tubular (CFT) circular steel columns exposed to combined axial and cyclic lateral loads. This research paper uses the nonlinear ...
Estimation of the fracture parameters of macro fiber-reinforced concrete based on nonlinear elastic fracture mechanics simulations
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
Integration of macro synthetic fibers within the concrete mixture provides residual tensile strength and toughness characteristics. Majority of existing studies in this regard focus on the impact of fibers on improving ...
Effective Microorganisms and Glass Nanopowders from Waste Bottle Inclusion on Early Strength and Microstructure Properties of High-Volume Fly-Ash-Based Concrete
(MDPI, 2022)
In concrete production, the use of high-volume fly ash (FA) as the cement substitute became interesting to achieve more sustainable and eco-friendly construction materials. However, concrete produced using high volumes of ...
Towards increased adoption of furnace bottom ash as sustainable building materials: Characterization, standardization, and applications
(Elsevier Ltd, 2024-04)
The global demand for coal is projected to increase in the current decade despite concerns regarding climate change, which will lead to an increasing volume of coal waste products such as furnace bottom ash (FBA). The ...
