Recycled nylon fibers as cement mortar reinforcement [PDF]
We investigate engineering applications of recycled nylon fibers obtained from waste fishing nets, focusing our attention on the use of recycled nylon fibers as tensile reinforcement of cementitious mortars. We begin by characterizing the tensile behavior of both unconditioned and alkali-cured recycled nylon fibers obtained through manual cutting of ...

Experimental evaluation of new pipe sleeve with weep holes for concrete leakage prevention [PDF]
Mortar is a layer with high water absorption rate over concrete due to its porous structure. The mortar layer that frequently exposed to water or moisture is more likely to contain moisture in its layer.

Multiscale mortar mixed finite element methods for the Biot system of poroelasticity [PDF]
We develop a mixed finite element domain decomposition method on non-matching grids for the Biot system of poroelasticity. A displacement-pressure vector mortar function is introduced on the interfaces and utilized as a Lagrange multiplier to impose weakly continuity of normal stress and normal velocity.

From Nature to Engineering: Mortar Volume and Interfacial Mechanics in Bioinspired Ceramics
Inspired by natural armors like nacre, this study explores how varying the volume fraction of the soft mortar layer impacts the interfacial strength and toughness of bioinspired ceramics. Experimental and computational analysis reveals that higher mortar volumes increase energy dissipation but reduce interfacial stiffness, offering insights for ...
