Experimental theoretical modelling of concrete shrinkage in massive structures [PDF]
In spite of the high culture of modern construction, the majority of massive structures erected in different countries of the world cannot avoid shrinkage cracks during the curing process, which negatively affect both the stiffness and durability of such

A penalised data-driven block shrinkage approach to empirical Bayes wavelet estimation [PDF]
In this paper we propose a simple Bayesian block wavelet shrinkage method for estimating an unknown function in the presence of Gaussian noise. A data–driven procedure which can adaptively choose the block size and the shrinkage level at each resolution ...

Studying the Effect of Shrinkage on the Bond Strength of Mortars, Applied to Substrate Concrete, Using “Friction-Transfer” and “Pull-Off” Methods [PDF]
Considering the differences that exist between the laboratory and site conditions, the in-situ estimation of bond strength of repair mortars is important. Therefore, in this paper, the results obtained from the use of two methods, “Friction-transfer” and
