A Direct Tensile Strength Testing Method for Concrete from Existing Structures
Tensile strength is a crucial property for the function, safety and durability of all concrete structures. The general procedure to assess the tensile properties of concrete from existing structures is to perform indirect tests and predict the tensile ...

Ubiquitiformal fracture energy
The ubiquitiformal fracture energy is proposed in the paper and its explicit expression is obtained. Moreover, the numerical results for concrete are found to be in good agreement with those for the critical strain energy release rate. The discrepancy between the numerical results of the traditional fracture energy and the critical strain energy ...

Fracture Energy and Aftershocks [PDF]
Summary The b-value of the frequency-magnitude relationship for aftershocks increases with the fracture energy yo of the mainshock according to the empirical relationship, b = 0.06 log yo + 0.48 I', = 0.53 where rc is the correlation coefficient. Thus for large yo, a fair proportion of the aftershocks will have small magnitudes while the converse is ...
