Establishing the fiber bridging law by an inverse analysis approach [PDF]
, 2016 A method for establishing the relationship between stress and crack face opening for steel fiber–reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams under three-point loading was proposed using inverse analysis.

An embedded crack model for failure analysis of concrete solids [PDF]
, 2010 We present a quadrilateral fi nite element with an embedded crack that can be used to model tensile fracture in two-dimensional concrete solids and the crack growth. The element has kinematics that can represent linear jumps in both normal and tangential

Study of SENT specimens with a tilted notch to evaluate ductile tearing in spiral welded pipeline applications [PDF]
, 2015 There is an increasing interest for the use of spiral welded pipelines in strain based design applications. Environmentally imposed loads are able to plastically deform the pipelines, meaning that their structural response is of the utmost importance ...

Fracture toughness testing using photogrammetry and digital image correlation
MethodsX, 2018 Digital image correlation (DIC) is an optical technique commonly used for measuring displacement fields by tracking artificially applied random speckle patterns, which can sometimes be a problem for tracking small-scale displacements. DIC is particularly

Modeling water penetration at dam-foundation joint [PDF]
, 2007 When fracture occurs in a concrete dam, the crack mouth is typically exposed to water. Very often this phenomenon occurs at the dam-foundation joint and is driven also by the fluid pressure inside the crack.
