Influence of the type of fiber on the structural response and design of FRC slabs [PDF]
Most codes for the design of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) structures are based on the experience achieved throughout the years with steel fibers. Recent codes include the possibility of applying the same considerations for FRC structures with plastic ...

STEEL FIBER CURVATURE IN CONCRETE COMPOSITES: MODULUS PREDICTIONS USING EFFECTIVE STEEL FIBER PROPERTIES [PDF]
Results in the literature demonstrate that substantial improvements in the mechanical behavior of concrete have been attained through the addition of steel fibers as a reinforcing phase. We have developed a model combining finite element results and micromechanical methods to determine the effective reinforcing modu-lus of hook-ended steel fibers. This

Fibre concrete is a commonly improved concrete. Compared with ordinary concrete, it has more excellent characteristics and has been widely used in engineering structures and other fields. This paper describes the mechanical properties of polypropylene fibres, steel fibres, and hybrid fibres (steel fibres and polypropylene fibres); it discusses the use ...

Steel fiber/polyethylene terephtalate composites
Abstract Currently, lightweight materials with high performance have been strongly needed to meet the requirements of advanced structural materials. One of the promising lightweight materials is the metals fiber reinforced plastic composite, which usually gives good specific strength and high toughness.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Nationwide Survey of Atopic Myelitis and Plexin D1‐Immunoglobulin G‐Related Pain
ABSTRACT Objective To elucidate the features of plexin D1‐immunoglobulin (Ig)G‐associated neuropathic pain and its relationship to atopic myelitis (AM) in a nationwide Japanese survey. Methods A preliminary survey questionnaire was sent to 1574 selected departments (neurology and pediatrics/pediatric neurology) to explore the numbers of AM and plexin ...
