Nanofibrillated cellulose and cellulosic pulp for reinforcement of the extruded cement based materials
(Elsevier B.V., 2018-01-30)
The use of cellulose nanofibers as reinforcement may contribute for improving particle packing and decrease the crack growth rate of composites at nanoscale. Additionally, the high specific surface area of cellulose ...
Nanostructured Poly(methyl Methacrylate)-Silica Coatings for Corrosion Protection of Reinforcing Steel
(2022-02-25)
In the absence of preventive maintenance, corrosion of structural steel by the deterioration of the passive layer due to exposure to aggressive environments is the main failure factor of reinforced concrete. To overcome ...
A simple procedure for the preparation of laponite and thermoplastic starch nanocomposites: Structural, mechanical, and thermal characterizations
(2013-02-01)
The aim of this article is to propose advances for the preparation of hybrid nanocomposites prepared by the combination of intercalation from solution and melt-processing methods. This research investigates the effect of ...

Flexural performance of concrete beams reinforced with epoxy resin/glass and carbon fibers composites
(2021-01-01)
Factors such as project and execution errors, lack of maintenance and inspection, and increases in loading can cause deficiencies to reinforced concrete structures. In this regard, there is the necessity of the application ...
Reinforcement Learning using Gaussian Processes for Discretely Controlled Continuous Processes
(Planta Piloto de Ingeniería Química, 2013-07)
In many application domains such as autonomous avionics, power electronics and process systems engineering there exist discretely controlled continuous processes (DCCPs) which constitute a special subclass of hybrid dynamical ...
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 ...
Analytical Modeling of the Postcracking Response Observed in Hybrid Steel/Polypropylene Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
(MDPI, 2020-09)
This study deals with the analytical modeling of hybrid fiber-reinforced concretes (HyFRCs) made with a blend of different types of fibers characterized by different geometries and/or constitutive materials. The presented ...
