However, a variety of non-metallic materials (e.g., concrete and cementitious composites, rocks, glass, ceramics, bituminous mixtures, composites, polymers, rubber and soft matter, bones and biological materials, and advanced and multifunctional materials) have received relatively less attention, despite their attractiveness for a large spectrum of applications related to the components and structures of diverse engineering branches, applied sciences and architecture, and to the load-carrying systems of biological organisms. This book covers the broad topic of structural integrity of non-metallic materials, considering the modelling, assessment, and reliability of structural elements of any scale. Original contributions from engineers, mechanical materials scientists, computer scientists, physicists, chemists, and mathematicians are presented, applying both experimental and theoretical approaches.History of engineering & technologybicsscEthylene-propylene diene monomer rubber EPDMgrommetphysical propertiesoptimization of shape designreliability of rocksfatigue loadstrain energyred sandstonedistribution of strain energyindicesmulti-scale simulationfatigue loadingroad bridge decksstagnant waterfracture toughnessblast furnace slagparticle sizecompressive strengthconcreteconcrete crackingcrack patternscarbon fiber-reinforced polymers-CFRPRC strengthening (in bending and shear)RC beamssoft materialspolymersstrain ratedefect tolerancedigital image correlationstress concentratorsnotch bluntinglightning strikecomposite reinforced panelblow-off impulseelectric-thermal couplingboundary effectsize effecttensile strengthphysical modelling testrock structurefracturedeformationminingneutral axisself-healingsuccessive strain gaugeflexural testbridge deckspseudo-cracking methoddata assimilationtriaxial compression testsandstonerock mechanicsrock fractureenergy evolutionrock-like materialcrack propagationdiscrete elementstrain rate tensorvelocity fieldjointed rockuniaxial tension loadingnumerical analysisdiscrete element methodstrata structural behaviornumerical simulationtension weakeningfracturesgoaf consolidationfatigue lifemodified asphalt mixturefour-point bending beam fatigue testtwo-point trapezoidal beam fatigue testoverlay testerembedmentshale rockproppant packfracture widthfly ashfinenessfracture energycritical stress intensity factorassessmentbridge evaluationcompressive membrane actionconcrete bridgesfatiguefatigue assessmentlive loadsprestressed concretepunching shearscale modelCFRPLow Velocity ImpactsCohesive Zone Model (CZM)Finite Element Analysis (FEA)VUMATinter-laminar damageintra-laminar damagechemical groutingflowing waterwater plugging ratejoint roughness coefficientdamage modelmode-II microcracksthermodynamicsreinforced concrete beamimpact and quasi-static loadingretrofittingmineral grain shapeparticle flow codeuniaxial compression simulationrock mechanical propertymesostructurefinite element analysiscohesive zone modelhigh performance concretefibre-reinforced high performance concretecompressive stresscompressive modulus of elasticitymaximum compressive straintensionpressure-tension apparatusnondestructive testingultrasonic pulse velocityABAQUS FEAhigh-temperature wedge splitting testfracture parametersreducing conditioncarbon-containing refractoriesstrain-softeningfailure probabilitydiamond compositematerial failure characteristicsreliabilityrock cutting pickscivil engineeringfiber-reinforced composite laminatemulti-directional laminatedelaminationelastic interfaceenergy release ratemixed-mode fractureenhanced PG-NEMfunctionally graded material (FGM)stress intensity factor (SIF)modified interaction integralmetallic glassesshear bandsmechanical propertiesfracture mechanismsmall wind turbinestall regulationpitch regulationaeroelastic simulationFatigueFracture mechanicsStructural integrityPolymersCompositesCeramicsConcreteRockSoft matterAdvanced materials.History of engineering & technologySpagnoli Andreaedt1324201Spagnoli AndreaothBOOK9910557474603321Fatigue and Fracture of Non-metallic Materials and Structures3036033UNINA
