Reduction of Cracking and Shrinkage in Compressed Clay Beams during Drying [PDF]
Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2016 Uncontrolled evaporation of moisture from compressed clay beams can cause surface cracks, resulting in reduction of strength. This paper presents various treatments applied to clay beams during the process of casting, compacting and drying in order to ...

Influence of Polypropylene Fiber on Plastic Shrinkage Cracks of Concrete
Journal of Engineering Research (Libya), 2021 تشققات الإنكماش اللدن تسرع من عملية تغلغل المواد الضارة داخل الخرسانة وبالتالي فان العمر الخدمي للمنشآت الخرسانية المسلحة في هذه الحالة يكون قصير. أحد الطرق الفعالة للتقليل من التشققات في الخرسانة هو التسليح بالألياف. الهدف الرئيسي من هذه الدراسة المعملية هو للتحقق من تأثير إضافة ألياف البولي بروبلين (0، 0.01، 0.025 ،0.1 % من حجم الخرسانة) على سلوك ...

Microstructure Evolution of a VMnFeCoNi High‐Entropy Alloy After Synthesis, Swaging, and Annealing
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The synthesis and processing (rotary swaging and annealing) of the novel VMnFeCoNi alloy is investigated, alongside the estimation of the grain size effect on hardness. Analysis of a wide grain size range of recrystallized microstructures (12–210 µm) reveals a low annealing twin density.

Linear Shrinkage Behaviour of Compacted Loam Masonry Blocks [PDF]
Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2017 Walls of wet loam, used in earthen houses, generally experience more shrinkage which results in cracks and less compressive strength. This paper presents a technique of producing loam masonry blocks that are compacted in drained state during casting ...
