Selected experimental results from static loading tests of pre-tensioned railway sleepers and results of numerical simulations of the test are presented in this paper. Th [...]

The paper is focused on description and application of various transformations of a point sequence obtained for example from a fracture experiment. Typical reason for suc [...]

Selected approximation curves of mechanical-fracture parameter values − modulus of elasticity, effective fracture toughness, specific fracture energy, compressive cube [...]

The results of fracture experiments and numerical model with sandstone specimens are presented in this paper. The aim is the comparison of selected mechanical/fracture pa [...]

This paper is focused on fracture energy which belongs to the basic fracture-mechanical characteristics of quasi-brittle materials. This parameter is explored here from t [...]

The basic fracture properties of cement-based composite are ascertained on the basis of test evaluations of the specimens in suitable test configurations. Three-point ben [...]

Concrete is represented as a two-phase material in this paper. Behaviour of a crack with its tip on the interface between two different materials - hardened cement paste [...]

Presented paper deals with fracture behaviour of carbon fibre reinforced composites on the basis of Portland (PC) and alumina (HC) cement. Carbon fibres can be used for [...]

Abstrakt: Materiál na bázi alkalicky aktivovaných alumosilikátů, zastoupených vysokopecní granulovanou struskou, sloužil pro výrobu vzorků, které byly po 28 dn [...]

Abstrakt: Při stanovováni lomových charakteristik betonu a dalších cementových kompozitů je využívána zkouška tříbodovým ohybem trámců se zářezem. Efekt [...]
