This paper is a bibliographic tool reviewing experimental and theoretical studies related to
cement hydration and microstructure development that have been published within the four …

An experimental study was conducted on different concrete cylinders damaged in
compression. The evolution of damage was followed by means of linear and nonlinear …

In this study, a series of experiments was conducted to examine the mechanical and
damage properties of cemented paste backfill (CPB) with different water saturations (ws …

It has been studied the sensitivity of the technique of intermodulation of ultrasonic waves to
detect different damage states of concrete due to embedded steel corrosion. Accelerated …

In civil engineering, the testing of structures allows a large number of chemical, mechanical
and micro–macro structural parameters to be determined. Within the scope of ultrasonic Non …

Thermal damage in concrete usually induces contact-type defects, which result in
degradation of the concrete's performance. This paper attempts to visualize the thermal …

The carbonation process results in a change in the elastic properties of concrete, resulting in
a variation of standard acoustic indicators such as wave speed. However, this evolution is …

This work presents results allowing an unequivocal correlation of the observations of strong
nonlinear elastic features of ultrasonic waves (values of the nonlinearity parameters …

Pore structure has a significant effect on the mechanical response and durability of concrete.
To well understand damage evolution of concrete exposed to the acid deposit, the pore …

The aim of this work was to provide further confirmation of the possible use of non-linear
ultrasonic techniques for detecting the cracking due to corrosion of steel reinforcements in …
