Influence of Inertia on the Dynamic Compressive Strength of Concrete
Materials, 2022 The rate sensitivity of concrete material is closely related to the inertia and viscous effects. However, the effect of inertia on the dynamic strength of concrete remains unclear. In this paper, digital image correlation technology was applied to study the strain variation of dry and saturated concrete with different loading rates.

SIZE EFFECT IN COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF CONCRETE
Transactions of the Architectural Institute of Japan, 1977 Abstract Three series of experiments were carried out to examine the effect of the size and type of aggregate on the size effect in the compressive strength of concrete from the standpoint that it may result from the geometrical heterogeneity of concrete system.
