The use of fibre-reinforced alkali-activated composites (FRAAC) is gaining huge attention
recently due to their excellent performance coupled with its sustainable advantages. FRAAC …

Bridges, buildings, dams and other concrete structures are inevitably subjected to dynamic
loads. It is necessary to research the impact resistance of concrete structures. Polyvinyl …

Biopolymers have become popular in geotechnical engineering as they provide a carbon-
neutral alternative for soil solidification. Xanthan gum (XG) and jute fiber (JF) were selected …

Due to the growing concerns of deforestation, renewable materials as recycled cellulosic
waste and non-wood fibres provide an alternative solution for partial replacement of wood …

The present research focuses on the development and thermomechanical characterization
of unfired solid bricks based on clay (white and red) and Timahdite sheep wool, which are …

This study aimed to investigate the influence of two alternative cellulosic materials: bamboo
organosolv pulp and recycled waste carton pulp, on the flexural strength, fracture toughness …

An experimental study was carried out to evaluate the effect of several fibers on the
mechanical properties, drying shrinkage, and microstructural characteristics of alkali …

The uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks is an essential input parameter for
engineering design in mining and civil engineering. This research aimed to investigate the …

Regression analysis is commonly used to predict the compressive strength of soil-based
materials to reduce the time and cost of construction projects. This study presents the results …

Brittle fracture initially occurs at the nanometric and/or interatomic scale without prior plastic
deformation under elastic loading. Fibres of different dimensional scales in hybrid …
