Experimental studies of fiber concrete creep

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
The results of two-stage experimental studies of the strength and deformation characteristics of fibrous concrete reinforced with steel fiber. In the experiments we used steel fiber with bent ends, which practically does not form "hedgehogs", which ...

Application of Concrete Segment Panels for Reduction of Torsional Vibration Responses of Girder Bridges

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
The dynamic flexural behaviour of railway bridges is influenced by the torsional behaviour, and the flexural response tends to be amplified as the flexural natural frequency (the 1st vibrational mode) and torsional frequency (the 2nd vibrational mode ...
