In this article, four different structural epoxy adhesives such as SPABOND (TM) 820HTA (non-toughened), SPABOND (TM) 840HTA (toughened) adhesives, and their two hybrid combinations are fabricated using a manual mixing method. Quasi-static tensile experimen ...
A growing body of research has shown that reversed cyclic shear loading of reinforced concrete (RC) causes effects that are not accounted for in monotonic behavioral models. Notable among these effects are a reduction in shear strength and significant plas ...
Delamination in composite materials is often accompanied by fiber bridging that increases resistance to crack growth. Here, delamination of two unidirectional carbon/epoxy systems was studied under monotonic and displacement-controlled fatigue loading. One ...
Shear fatigue of reinforced concrete members without transverse reinforcement has been observed to be potentially governing for the strength of some structural members subjected to large live loads of repetitive nature (as traffic, wind or wave actions). A ...
