Experimental Investigation on Rheological Properties of Recycled Asphalt Pavement Mastics

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 2015
Studies have shown that rheology of asphalt mastic plays an important role in pavement performance, specifically for the case of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) mastics which contains mostly aged binder.

Effects of small surface tension in Hele-Shaw multifinger dynamics: an analytical and numerical study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We study the singular effects of vanishingly small surface tension on the dynamics of finger competition in the Saffman-Taylor problem, using the asymptotic techniques described in [S. Tanveer, Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. A 343, 155 (1993)]and [M. Siegel,

Methods and Points of Attention for the Direct Tension Test on Rock

open access: yesJournal of MMIJ, 2016
Compared to uniaxial or triaxial compression tests on rocks, direct tension tests on rocks are not common in practice. As is well known, the reasons are because underground rock masses are usually under compressive stress state and/or because the direct ...

Dynamic rock tensile strengths of Laurentian granite: Experimental observation and micromechanical model

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017
Tensile strength is an important material property for rocks. In applications where rocks are subjected to dynamic loads, the dynamic tensile strength is the controlling parameter.

Analysis of concrete fracture in “direct” tension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Solids and Structures, 1989
Abstract The direct tension test on concrete specimens is analysed using finite elements. The analysis shows that the behaviour after peak load is strongly non-homogeneous and involves asymmetric crack propagation. These observations, which are supported by experimental evidence, have consequences for deriving “stress-strain” relations from direct ...

New Method for Simulation the Flexural Behavior of Fiber Reinforced Concretes With Combining the Finite Element and Section Moment Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهش‌های زیرساخت‌های عمرانی, 2020
Fiber reinforced concrete in tension is categorized based on tension softening behavior. Wide researchers have been studied this behavior and presented many tension softening models.

Z(2) vortices and the string tension in SU(2) gauge theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We exhibit the appropriate variables allowing the plus-minus (Z(2)) `reduction' of the Wilson loop operator which provides a direct measure of the thin, thick and `mixed' Z(2) topological, gauge-invariant vortices in SU(2) LGT.
