Part A- Experimental: Experimental Analysis of Crack Propagation in Pre-stressed Concrete Sleepers by Fracture Mechanics
This study investigates propagation of mode I crack in B70 pre-stressed concrete sleepers by fracture mechanics approach. A new experimental analysis is done for notched B70 pre-stressed concrete sleepers with Replica test and image analysis. A scanning electron microscope test (SEM) and an image analysis are applied for the Replica test in order to determine crack length and crack mouth openin...
متن کاملA Notched Disk Crack Propagation Test for Asphalt Concrete
Cracking is a major distress in asphalt pavement which can lead to premature pavement failures and can cost agencies millions of dollars in maintenance and rehabilitation costs. Even with modern advances in pavement engineering, attempts to quantify and model cracking in asphalt pavements have proved extremely challenging; this is due to the visco-elastic behavior of asphalt concrete and the co...

متن کاملMonitoring of Crack Propagation in Concrete Using Embedded Piezoelectric Transducers
A concrete structure can be subject to several factors that may damage it during its service life. These factors are either be climatic, chemical or accidental. The security requirements are more and more speci c and severe. To ensure the safety of a structure, it is important to know its state and the properties of the materials that make it up. For this purpose, many tests has been developed....
متن کاملAssessment of Crack Activity by Acoustic Emission in Concrete Structures
Concrete and steel are the most widely used major materials for constructing civil structures such as bridges, dam, and buildings. From the acoustic emission (AE) point of view, contrary to steel itself, a lot of AE signals are acquired in concrete itself under service loads whether the crack is active or not. This paper aims to identify the differences of AE event patterns caused by developing...
