Sentence examples for multiple micro cracks from inspiring English sources

The strain capacity, energy absorption capacity and the number of multiple micro cracks within unit length obviously decreased as the gauge length, section area and volume of UHPFRC specimens increased.

Due to its excellent post-cracking tensile performance with multiple micro-cracks occurred, UHPFRC has attracted attention from engineers for application in structural elements subjected to bending.

The electrical resistivity of the SH-SFRCs clearly decreased as the tensile strain increased until the post-cracking point, owing to the generation of multiple micro-cracks during strain-hardening.

Based on the experimental results, ECC with multiple micro-cracks benefits self-healing behavior.

Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) forms multiple micro-cracks under tension when loaded to beyond the elastic stage.

Multiple micro-cracks developed in a diagonal arrangement between the load and support points due to the strain-hardening response of ECC in tension.

Furthermore, the shorter fibers enhanced the strain hardening phase, leading to more stable multiple micro-cracks and higher resistance to growth of macro-cracks.

A hexagonal-shaped representative volume element model with multiple micro-cracks is established based on the microstructure of the FRCC to represent the transversely isotropic material characteristics.

It is also discovered that multiple micro-cracks due to mechanical loading will heal sufficiently under freezing and thawing cycles in the presence of salt solutions to restore nearly the original stiffness.

Fibre-reinforced cementitious composite (FRCC), by adding short discrete fibres randomly in cementitious composites, exhibits substantially improved mechanical properties than conventional cementitious composites due to the fibre bridging action and the existence of multiple micro-cracks.

Multiple micro- cracking in ECC delays fracture localization typically observed in normal concrete.
