Exploring the potential of functionally graded materials concept for the development of fiber cement
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2010)
In this study we establish the concept of functionally graded fiber cement. We discuss the use of statistical mixture designs to choose formulations and present ideas for the production of functionally graded fiber cement ...
Evaluation of mechanical, physical and thermal performance of cement-based tiles reinforced with vegetable fibers
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2008)
The objective of this work was to analyze mechanical, physical and thermal performance of roofing tiles produced with several formulations of cement-based matrices reinforced with sisal and eucalyptus fibers. The physical ...
Influence of fiber orientation on the behavior of fiber reinforced concrete slabs
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2021-06)
After several decades of research studies, design rules for fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) are now available for several structural elements. Starting from standard tests, it is possible to determine design parameters and ...
Sustainable Concrete with Coconut Fibers to Improve its Mechanical Characteristics in Buildings
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2022-01-01)
In the search for a dosage that allows us to design a sustainable concrete with greater resistant capacity. Different solutions are proposed that allow us to find the right addition to achieve a better performance in the ...
Performance characteristics of fiber modified hot mix asphalt
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-07-10)
A mixture of polypropylene and aramid fibers was used in this study to evaluate the performance characteristics of a modified asphalt mixture. A conventional dense-graded hot mix asphalt (HMA) used in Sao Paulo, Brazil was ...
Improvement of asphalt mixture performance with glass macro-fibers
(Elsevier, 2018-03)
Cracking is a common failure in concrete asphalt mixtures due to fatigue and low temperatures. For centuries fibers have been used to reinforce materials and short and long fibers have extensive use in Portland cement ...
Experimental characterization of the post-cracking response in Hybrid Steel/Polypropylene Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
(Elsevier, 2016-10)
This paper presents and discusses the results of experimental tests performed on concrete specimens internally reinforced with polypropylene and steel fibers. Specifically, samples of five mixtures (plus a reference plain ...
Analysis of steel fibers pull-out. Experimental study
(Elsevier, 2015-12)
A series of experimental pull-out tests consisting of different types of steel fibers with different inclinations extracted from various types of matrix is presented. Based on experimental results, the complete pull-out ...
One-step fiber post cementation and core build-up in endodontically treated tooth: A clinical case report
(2020-01-01)
Objective: This clinical case report addresses the step-by-step of the application of a core-and-post system that uses a single resin composite material to fiber post cementation and core build-up in a maxillary left central ...
Cellulose Composites for Construction Applications
(Wiley, 2014)
This chapter reflects the key tendencies of cellulose fiber composites for construction applications. These materials represent an alternative to traditional materials in the construction industry that will be reflected ...
