Can Ti‐Based MXenes Serve as Solid Lubricants for Brake Applications? A Tribological Study

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the first implementation of Ti‐based MXenes materials in brake pad friction composite material. The resulting composite material exhibits a 48% reduction in the wear rate; alongside significant improvements are observed for thermal and mechanical properties.

RC column strengthening by lateral pre-tensioning of FRP [PDF]

, 2003
This paper presents a unique strengthening technique for existing concrete columns that use expansive materials to apply lateral pre-tensioning. The technique increases the capacity and ductility of a column as well as achieving better utilisation of the

Four‐Point Bending Tests at High Temperatures on Commercial MgO‐C Refractory Bricks with and Without Recyclate Considering Different Carbon Contents

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Four‐point bending tests are conducted in an argon atmosphere on commercial MgO‐C brick grades with and without MgO‐C recyclate from room temperature up to 1300 °C. No detrimental effect of the MgO‐C recyclates on bending strength is found. Instead, a decisive influence of the total carbon content is observed, with lower total carbon contents ...

Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete

International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology
Abstract: Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) has emerged as a promising composite material that significantly enhances the mechanical properties of conventional concrete. By integrating discrete steel fibres within the cementitious matrix, SFRC exhibits improved tensile strength, toughness, and crack resistance, addressing many of the inherent ...

Synthetic and steel fibers in prestressed, precast long span beams [PDF]

, 2014
Four large-scale, prismatic, T-shaped beams with 19 m span were produced without stirrups, but 2 with synthetic fibres and 2 with steel fibres. Four point bending tests were made to simulate the load bearing process of built-in beams. Three point

Permeability of Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete Influence of Fibre Parameters

Procedia Engineering, 2011
Abstract An extensive laboratory investigation was undertaken to study the effects of different fibre parameters on the permeability of steel fibre reinforced concrete. The effects of fibre content, fibre aspect ratio and curing age were studied. Crimped fibres in varying weight fractions of 1.0%, 2.0% and 4.0% and having aspect ratios of 65, 85 and ...

3D‐Printed Serial Snap‐Through Architectures for Programmable Mechanical Response

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A serial snap‐through architecture is realized using compact 3D‐printed von Mises truss units arranged in a staged cascade. Their geometry and boundary conditions program multistage mechanical responses with plateaux and re‐hardening regimes. An inverted‐compliance model predicts these behaviors and enables analytical design of programmable force ...
