Time and Crack Effect on Chloride Diffusion for Concrete with Fly Ash

International Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2018
Nuclear power plants are constructed very close to the marine environments for cooling water and the structures are more susceptible to chloride induced corrosion.

Effect of crack depth and specimen width on fracture toughness of a carbon steel in the ductile-brittle transition region [PDF]

, 2000
The effects of crack depth (a/W) and specimen width W on the fracture toughness and ductile±brittle transition have been investigated using three-point bend specimens.

The effect of external stiffening elements on the fatigue crack growth in Fibre Metal Laminate

, 2007
Fibre Metal Laminates (FML’s) have been developed in the past to increase the fatigue characteristics of laminated aluminium structures by adding fibres in the bond line.

Dynamic evolution and numerical analysis of rock deformation under impact failure based on corner correlation method

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
To fulfill the requirement for deformation measurement within the failure area during rock failure, a newly developed digital image algorithm, known as the corner correlation method, was implemented.

The influence of the parameterϕ/ρ_effon crack widths [PDF]

Structural Concrete, 2004
Professor Beeby's 2004 paper questioned the basis of the widely cited ‘classical’ model for estimation of crack widths in reinforced concrete elements. It provides a valuable reminder of the need to verify the predictions of theoretical models against experimental data, a task which he has performed to the benefit of our understanding on several ...

Analytical Modeling of Crack Widths and Cracking Loads in Structural RC Members

Infrastructures, 2022
Crack width is a major performance criterion in reinforced-concrete structures, in general, and is of utmost importance in ensuring bridge performance, in particular. A reliable theory-based method is required to assess crack widths and gain insight into their dependence on material, geometry, and loading parameters.

A numerical study of crack shielding and deflection under extensive plasticity [PDF]

, 2009
Experimentally observed crack deflection events in multi-layered material systems, occurring even under pure mode-I loading, are here simulated and explained through elasto-plastic finite element modelling.

Chloride Diffusion and Corrosion Assessment in Cracked Marine Concrete Bridges Using Extracted Crack Morphologies

Buildings
Chloride-induced reinforcement corrosion primarily contributes to the deterioration of concrete structures. Cracks provide natural pathways for chloride ions, which accelerate the corrosion process and shorten the service life of structures.
