Pre-Stress Losses in FRP Pre-Stressed Reinforced Concrete – Subject Overview
Archives of Civil Engineering, 2018 Fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) due to their specific high-strength properties become more and more popular and replace traditional structural materials like conventional steel in prestressed concrete structures. FRP reinforced structures are relatively

Coulomb pre-stress and fault bends are ignored yet vital factors for earthquake triggering and hazard [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2019 Scattered earthquake locations in the same region cannot be explained solely by coseismic Coulomb stress on planar faults. Instead, the authors suggest Coulomb pre-stress to influence earthquake locations.

Bond Strength of Fiber-Reinforced Mortar and Concrete Interface under Pre-Stress [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2023 Shrinkage and improper compaction of the repair layer are among the main reasons for the adhesion drop. Shrinkage results in cracking and improper compaction causes fine pores in the interface.

Influence of Pre-Stressing on Tieback Retaining Wall for Sandy Soils Excavations
Journal of the Civil Engineering Forum, 2021 Pre-stressed ground anchor systems or tieback systems are commonly used at wide and irregular-shaped excavations, with the advantage of lower cost and ease of construction compared to the braced excavations, but they come with the drawback on permits for
