Comparative Study on the Bond Strength between Direct Tensile Test and Indirect Tensile Test for Bonded Concrete Overlay [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of The Korean Society of Civil Engineers, 2013
Bonded concrete overlay is a favorable maintenance method since the material properties are similar to existing concrete pavements. In addition, bonded concrete overlay has advantage of structural performance based on being bonded together, both for the overlay layer and the existing pavement which perform as one monolithic layer.

Direct Tensile Test on Brittle Rocks with the Newly Developed Centering Apparatus [PDF]

open access: yesGeotechnical Testing Journal, 2017
Abstract Failure of brittle rock normally initiates from tensile fracture due to its extraordinary lower resistance to tension rather than to compression. Intensive study on the deformability and accurate acquirement of the mechanical properties of rock under tensile stress is crucial for the stability analysis of rock slope and rock ...

A Discussion about the Rod Position in the Splitting Tensile Tests on Hollow Concrete Blocks

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Different loading conditions cause different tensile stress patterns in masonry structures. Several studies related to masonry behavior use indirect tensile tests to obtain that value, where the splitting test from ASTM-C-1006 is usually employed.

Assessing the contribution of vegetation to slope stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Many embankments and cuttings associated with the transportation infrastructure in the UK are only marginally stable. Engineering techniques such as soil nailing, geosynthetic reinforcement, improved drainage and ground improvement by stabilisation are ...

Indirect Tensile Strength Test on Heterogeneous Rock Using Square Plate Sample with a Circular Hole [PDF]

open access: yesLithosphere
An indirect testing method for determining the tensile strength of rock-like heterogeneous materials is proposed. The realistic failure process analysis method, which can consider material inhomogeneity, is applied to model the failure process of the ...

Dimpling process in cold roll metal forming by finite element modelling and experimental validation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The dimpling process is a novel cold-roll forming process that involves dimpling of a rolled flat strip prior to the roll forming operation. This is a process undertaken to enhance the material properties and subsequent products’ structural performance ...

3action: Advances in direct-tensile testing of concrete

open access: yesMaterials and Structures
Abstract Gaining a deeper insight into stress vs crack opening curve of concrete is essential, especially when crack stability governs the durability and the capacity of a structure. Despite its rationality, the direct-tension test faces the challenges entailed by strain-softening materials, namely axial and flexural instability.
