Ultra-High-Performance Concrete Crack Propagation Based on Fiber Random Distribution Model
The tensile strength, crack behavior, and strain-hardening properties of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) are mainly affected by the steel fibers distributed in the matrix. In this study, a mesoscopic model of UHPC was established using a numerical

Parameter analysis and design method of ultra-high performance concrete shear strengthening RC beams [PDF]
In recent years, bridge safety accidents caused by insufficient shear bearing capacity of bridges have attracted increasing attention. The main causes include internal factors such as insufficient bridge section and deterioration of steel bars, as well ...

Cannabis through the looking glass: chemo- and enantio-selective separation of phytocannabinoids by enantioselective ultra high performance supercritical fluid chromatography [PDF]
By using the Inverted Chirality Columns Approach (ICCA) we have developed an enantioselective UHPSFC method to determine the enantiomeric excess (ee) of (-)-Δ(9)-THC in medicinal marijuana (Bedrocan®).

Experimental investigation on UHPC shrinkage of full-scale steel-UHPC composite bridge deck
Three full-scale composite bridge deck segments with various steel-to-UHPC area ratios, as well as free shrinkage specimens, were tested to investigate the restrained shrinkage and cracking behaviors. Based on the measured UHPC strain and temperature, the variations in shrinkage strain were analyzed, and a time-varying analysis theory for calculating ...

Utilizing Full UHPC Compressive Strength in Steel Reinforced UHPC Beams
Steel reinforced ultra-high performance concrete (R/UHPC) flexural members commonly fail by fracture of the steel reinforcement after crack localization rather than crushing of the cement-based matrix as expected in traditional reinforced concrete. When failing after crack localization, R/UHPC specimens show low drift capacity and the high composite ...

Effect of Clay as a Nanomaterial on Corrosion Potential of Steel Reinforcement Embedded in Ultra-High Performance Concrete [PDF]
The effect of clay as nanomaterial or nanoclay (NC) on corrosion potential of steel reinforcement embedded in ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) due to the early age properties of UHPC was investigated.

Shear strengthening of concrete T-beams with lateral layers of UHPC [PDF]
Concrete T-beams are commonly used in building slab systems and bridge decks. They may require strengthening in shear when they are deteriorated or when loading requirements increased. This research project studied the shear behaviour of concrete T-beams
