Quantification of Effects of Fly Ash Type on Concrete Early-Age Cracking

Riding, Kyle A.; Poole, Jonathan L.; Schindler, Anton K.; Juenger, Maria C. G.; Folliard, Kevin J. (2010-08-06)

The mechanisms that contribute to early-age cracking are complex. Determining the relative importance of each mechanism as well as the combined cracking potential for a given concrete material is essential for the ...
Signal pattern-recognition for damage diagnosis in structures

Qiao, Long; Esmaeily, Asad; Melhem, Hani G. (2013-02-13)

A signal-based pattern-recognition approach is used for structural damage diagnosis with a single or limited number of input/output signals. The approach is based on extraction of the features of the structural response ...
Simplified Concrete Resistivity and Rapid Chloride Permeability Test Method

Riding, Kyle A.; Poole, Jonathan L.; Schindler, Anton K.; Juenger, Maria C. G.; Folliard, Kevin J. (2010-08-06)

A simplified method of measuring concrete resistivity, as an index of permeability, has been developed that is similar to ASTM C1202 or the rapid chloride permeability test (RCPT). It is significantly faster and easier ...
Strain localization in unsaturated elastic-plastic materials subjected to plane strain compression

Peric, Dunja; Zhao, Gaofeng; Khalili, Nasser (2014-12-03)

Analytical solutions have been derived for the onset of strain localization in a broad class of unsaturated elastic-plastic porous materials based on Bishop’s definition of effective stress. Critical hardening moduli for ...
Stresses in thin, multi-layer pipes in large radial vibrations

Nayyeri Amiri, Shahin; Esmaeily, Asad; Safadoust, Javad (2014-02-11)

Free, large radial oscillations of multi-layered, thin, long, pipes are investigated using the theory of finite elastic deformations. The material of each layer is assumed to be homogeneous, isotropic, hyperelastic and ...
Temperature Boundary Condition Models for Concrete Bridge Members

Riding, Kyle A.; Poole, Jonathan L.; Schindler, Anton K.; Juenger, Maria C. G.; Folliard, Kevin J. (2010-08-06)

The temperature development of mass concrete elements is strongly dependent on constituent materials and mixture proportions, as well as the formwork type, geometry, and environmental conditions. This paper presents a ...
Thermochemical pretreatments for agricultural residue ash production for concrete

Ataie, Feraidon F.; Riding, Kyle A. (2013-12-20)

Agricultural residue ash is known to be a very reactive source of supplementary cementitious material (SCM) for use in concrete. The influence of thermochemical pretreatments on the reactivity of agricultural residue ash ...
Transient wave propagation in non-homogeneous viscoelastic media

Nayyeri Amiri, Shahin; Esmaeily, Asad (2014-01-24)

Propagation of transient pressure waves in nonhomogeneous viscoelastic media with a cylindrical hole of circular cross section is investigated by employing the theory of propagating surfaces of discontinuities. The ...
Use of bioethanol byproduct for supplementary cementitious material production

Ataie, Feraidon F.; Riding, Kyle A. (2014-02-12)

Corn stover has the potential for use as a supplementary cementitious material (SCM) for concrete. The impact of distilled water and dilute acid pretreatments and post-treatments on the pozzolanic reactivity of corn stover ...
