This paper investigates the fracture mechanism of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (UHPFRC) using acoustic emission (AE), digital image correlation (DIC), and magnetoscopy testing. Four specimens undergo uniaxial tensile load ...

Micro-compression tests were carried out on pillars of 60 mu m in diameter, milled by plasma focused ion beam in porous Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) pellets. The fracture properties were determined over a wide range of porosities (33 %-63 %) for 8YSZ a ...

Under seismic actions, stone masonry buildings are prone to damage. To assess the severity of damaged masonry buildings and their failure modes, engineers connect these problems to surface crack features, such as the crack width and the extent of cracking. ...

This paper proposes a novel embedded column base (ECB) connection that defies the current paradigm in capacity-designed steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) where column bases have been traditionally considered as nondissipative. In the proposed concept, a ...

Magneto-rheological elastomers (MREs) are functional materials that can be actuated by applying an external magnetic field. MREs comprise a composite of hard magnetic particles dispersed into a nonmagnetic elastomeric (soft) matrix. Hard MREs have been rec ...

Traditionally, the concrete strength is measured on cubes or cylinders having normalized dimensions, suitable vibration and curing conditions and their strength is assessed in laboratory under fast loading rates. However, the in-situ strength of structural ...

The fabrication of responsive soft materials that enable the controlled release of microbial induced calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation (MICP) would be highly desirable for the creation of living materials that can be used, for example, as self-healin ...

The field of soil bio-improvement, through microbial-induced calcite mineralization, has gained significant momentum in scientific literature in the past years. The phenomenon, which is inspired from natural environments, has been extensively applied at la ...

We present multi-wavelength single-shot ptychography, a technique which is ideally suited for imaging dynamically evolving plasmas. Through improvements to single-shot ptychography and a novel probe constraint, wavelength-multiplexed single-shot ptychograp ...
