Flexural strength and ductility of moso bamboo

open access: yesConstruction and Building Materials, 2020
Bamboo is a fast growing and natural fiber-reinforced material with excellent flexural strength and ductility. While it has been increasingly used in many applications, flexural ductility of bamboo and methods to evaluate this property have not been ...

The behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Beams by Using Expanded Polystyrene Beads and Palm Oil Fuel Ash as Replacement Materials [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Metallurgy and Materials
The Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams containing Expanded Polystyrene Beads (EPS) and Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) as sand and cement replacement with a percentage between 10% and 30% were studied in terms of load-deflection behaviour.

Splenic flexure volvulus [PDF]

open access: yesPostgraduate Medical Journal, 1985
Summary Splenic flexure volvulus is rare, only 22 cases having been reported. Though these usually present with chronic intermittent clinical features we recently encountered a case presenting as acute intestinal obstruction which, on plain abdominal X-rays, had classical features of this condition.

Effective Strengthening of RC Beams Using Bamboo-Fibre-Reinforced Polymer: A Finite-Element Analysis

open access: yesFibers, 2023
This paper presents a finite-element model of the structural behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with and without openings externally strengthened with bamboo-fibre-reinforced composite (BFRC) plates.

On the path to a new generation of cement-based composites through the use of lignocellulosic micro/nanofibers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Due to its high biocompatibility, bio-degradability, and low cost, cellulose finds application in disparate areas of research. Here we focus our attention on the potential applications of cellulose nanofiber in cement-basedmaterials for the building ...

Flexural Strength and Hardness of Filler-Reinforced PMMA Targeted for Denture Base Application

open access: yesMaterials, 2021
The aim of this work was to evaluate the flexural strength and surface hardness of heat-cured Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) modified by the addition of ZrO2 nanoparticles, TiO2 nanoparticles, and E-glass fibre at different wt.% concentrations. Specimens

Mechanical performance of glass-based geopolymer matrix composites reinforced with cellulose fibers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Glass-based geopolymers, incorporating fly ash and borosilicate glass, were processed in conditions of high alkalinity (NaOH 10-13 M). Different formulations (fly ash and borosilicate in mixtures of 70-30 wt% and 30-70 wt%, respectively) and physical ...

Compressive and flexural strength of fiber-reinforced foamed concrete: Effect of fiber content, curing conditions and dry density

open access: yesConstruction and Building Materials, 2019
An extensive experimental campaign was carried out to investigate the mechanical strength of fiber-reinforced lightweight foamed concrete. The considered foamed concrete was prepared with a viscosity enhancing agent that increases the cohesion and ...

Influence of Filler on Mechanical and Di-electric Properties of Coir and Luffa Cylindrica Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Hybrid Composites

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Natural fiber hybrid composites were prepared by Hand layup technique by reinforcing coir, silk squash, and CaCO3. Both coir and silk squash is maintained constant weight proportion of 10 wt. % and 5.7 wt. %, respectively, whereas as CaCO3 is varied with
