Understanding the rebound surface hardness of concrete
Surface hardness testing of materials can be considered as the oldest method to get information about strength related material properties. In recent decades the rebound hammer has been the most popular surface hardness testing device for concrete ...

The Performance of Empirical Laws for Rebound Hammer Tests on Concrete Structures
The assessment of concrete compressive strength plays a key role in the analysis of the seismic vulnerability of existing buildings. However, the adoption of classical destructive tests is usually limited by their invasiveness, cost and time needed for ...

Energy partition at the collapse of spherical cavitation bubbles [PDF]
Spherically collapsing cavitation bubbles produce a shock wave followed by a rebound bubble. Here we present a systematic investigation of the energy partition between the rebound and the shock.

Diagnosis and Prediction of Market Rebounds in Financial Markets [PDF]
We introduce the concept of "negative bubbles" as the mirror image of standard financial bubbles, in which positive feedback mechanisms may lead to transient accelerating price falls. To model these negative bubbles, we adapt the Johansen-Ledoit-Sornette

Abstract Increased energy efficiency led to increased economic growth, the energy used in the economy, and overall production. Unfortunately, the rebound effect and carbon emissions were adverse effects on the final result of energy efficiency.

Repeatability of concrete rebound hardness using comprehensive statistical analysis
The reliability of the result significantly affects the use of the Coefficient of Variation (within the test variation), which reflects the variability of the concrete properties rather than the standard deviation.

Hammer rebound index is an indirect measure that has traditionally been used to estimate the compressive strength of concrete through the use of statistical models. It is especially useful in the quality control performed during the construction of a concrete structure, as well as in rehabilitation works.

Interday Reliability and Usefulness of a Reactive Strength Index Derived From 2 Maximal Rebound Jump Tests [PDF]
Purpose: To examine the interday reliability and usefulness of a reactive strength index (RSI) derived from a maximal 5-rebound jump test (5max RJT) and a maximal 10-rebound jump test (10/5 RJT). Methods: Twenty male field-sport athletes (24.5 [3.0] y, 1.78 [0.1] m, 84.9 [5.2] kg) and 15 female participants (21.1 [0.9] y, 1.65 [0.73] m, 62.0 [5.1] kg ...
