Numerical analysis of debonding behavior of FRP sheets bonded to concrete focusing on mortar skin
Abstract This paper proposes a novel simple method for finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the debonding behavior of fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets bonded to concrete. This study focuses on the mortar skin of the concrete surface layer, which fails during FRP sheet debonding.

Abstract The use of steel fiber‐reinforced concrete (SFRC) has seen a significant rise in the construction industry due to advancements in material science, improved quality, and cost efficiency. Similarly, the importance of fastening systems in construction has grown, necessitating robust research on the performance of fasteners in SFRC to ensure safe

Abstract In practice, reinforced concrete (RC) wall‐like columns often have openings to facilitate building services, which creates stress concentrations around the opening, resulting in the weakening of their load‐carrying capacity. This study proposes innovative strengthening methods using near‐surface mounted (NSM) incorporating steel materials to ...

ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare the physicochemical properties of EndoSequence Root Repair Material (ERRM) Fast and CeraPutty with ProRoot MTA and Biodentine, focusing on setting time, radiopacity, microhardness, and pH. Setting time was measured using a Gilmore‐type indenter applied every 5 min until no indentation was observed (n = 15 per group).

ABSTRACT With this contribution, an attempt is being made to chart the timeline of the invention of the European hard‐paste porcelain based on historical documents. They were evaluated to trace the development lines from Tschirnhaus's early experiments with burning mirrors and lenses in the 1680s to finding ‘wax porcelain’ around 1694 to the ...
