Microstructural modelling of creep crack growth from a blunted crack [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The effect of crack tip blunting on the initial stages of creep crack growth is investigated by means of a planar microstructural model in which grains are represented discretely. The actual linking-up process of discrete microcracks with the macroscopic

Dependence of Thermal Shock Crack on Specimen Width for Ceramic Materials

open access: yes, 2016
Knowledge of size effect of thermal shock properties of ceramics is a prerequisite in engineering applications. In the present study, the size effect of the cracking in the ceramic materials subjected to water quenching has been experimentally conducted.

Surface Crack Shape Evolution Modelling using an RMS SIF approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The majority of fatigue cracks in thick plate and tubular sections in structural components are two-dimensional surface cracks having significant propagation lives before becoming critical.

Study on the Attribute Characteristics of Road Cracks Detected by Ground-Penetrating Radar

open access: yesSensors
Cracks are a common form of road distress that can significantly impact pavement integrity. Accurate detection of the attribute characteristics of cracks, including the type, location (top and bottom), width, and orientation, is crucial for effective ...

Effect of Cracking on Corrosion of Steel in Concrete

open access: yesInternational Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials, 2018
It is generally recognized that cracks provide easy access to ingress of chlorides in concrete and hence, the initiation of corrosion of steel in cracked concrete occurs at early stage.

CONVENTIONAL AND UNCONVENTIONAL APPROACHES FOR THE EVALUATION OF CRACK WIDTH IN FRC STRUCTURES

open access: yes, 2017
To evaluate crack patterns accurately, a conventional tension-stiffening approach has to be used. Accordingly, both the bridging of fibers and the bond-slip mechanisms of rebars are taken into account in a new block model.

An improvement to Eurocode 2 and fib Model Code 2010 methods for calculating crack width in RC structures: mathematical model and simplified method

open access: yes, 2017
A mathematical model for the analysis of the mechanical behaviour of a reinforced concrete tie subjected to a monotonic loading, that considers the effect of the so-called Goto cracks (secondary cracks), is described here.

Experimental and Theoretical Investigation on Cracking Behavior and Influencing Factors of Steel-Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams

open access: yesBuildings
Steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) deep beams have been widely used in engineering applications such as high-rise buildings and long-span bridges, with their structural behavior and mechanical properties attracting significant research attention.
