  2. 1. Fibre reinforced concrete : fracture mechanics methods applied on self-compacting concrete and energetically modified binders

    Author : Patrik Groth; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) is a type of building material that is increasing in use. As new types on concrete develops the need to update the knowledge on the use of fibre reinforcement increases. This thesis covers test methods for FRC that ranges from standard beam tests to sophisticated uniaxial tension tests. READ MORE

  4. 2. Continuous Fibre Reinforced Oxide/Oxide Composites

    Author : Magnus Holmquist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; polycrystalline oxide fibre; zirconia; single crystal oxide fibre; hot isostatic pressing; hot pressing; alumina; mullite; sapphire; tape casting; interface; VibroIntrusion; interphase; continuous fibre reinforced ceramic composite; mechanical properties; oxide fibre; ceramic matrix composite;

    Abstract : The appealing properties of ceramics include retention of strength and hardness at high temperatures, chemical inertness and low density. However, monolithic ceramics fail in a brittle, unpredictable manner making them unsuitable for many applications where reliability is a key requirement. READ MORE

  5. 3. Chloride Induced Corrosion of Steel Bars in Fibre Reinforced Concrete

    Author : Carlos Gil Berrocal; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrical resistivity; chloride ingress; fibre reinforced concrete; crack width; reinforced concrete durability; chloride-induced corrosion;

    Abstract : Chloride-induced corrosion of reinforcement is the most widespread degradation mechanism affecting the durability of reinforced concrete structures. Macro-cracks provide a preferential path for moisture, oxygen and Cl ions to reach the embedded reinforcement, playing a major role in their total transport. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fibre reinforced polymers in civil engineering : flexural strengthening of concrete structures with prestressed near surface mounted CFRP rods

    Author : Håkan Nordin; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Repair and/or upgrading of concrete structures with bonded steel or FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymers) materials or by use of external tendons have been used for some time. In most cases the bonded on FRP materials are unstressed. READ MORE

  7. 5. Fibre-reinforced Concrete for Industrial Construction - a fracture mechanics approach to material testing and structural analysis

    Author : Ingemar Lövgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; in-situ cast; non-linear; self-compacting; fibre-reinforced; concrete;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTMore efficient and industrialised construction methods are both necessary for thecompetitiveness of in-situ concrete and essential if the construction industry is to moveforward. At present, the expenditure on labour (preparation and dismantling offormwork, reinforcing, and casting and finishing of concrete) almost equals the cost ofmaterial. READ MORE
