Concrete composites used in civil and military infrastructure are susceptible to catastrophic
failure under intense sudden blasts or explosions. These types of infrastructure must …

In this study, a review of previous research that investigates the influence of strain rate on
the dynamic and quasi-static behaviour of concrete and steel material behaviour is …

Utilizing recycled fine aggregate (RFA) as silica sand replacement for ductile engineered
geopolymer composites (EGC) provides a high value-added approach to recycling concrete …

The application of UHPC might reduce the weight of the bridge deck and improve its crack
resistance and durability. This study proposes a hollow steel-UHPC composite deck …

This paper addresses the static properties and impact resistance of a “green” Ultra-High
Performance Hybrid Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPHFRC). The design of concrete …

The use of corrugated steel fibers can improve the interface bonding strength between the
fiber and the concrete, thereby exhibiting superior mechanical properties of steel fibers …

The K&C material model is widely used to numerically predict the responses of concrete
structures against impact or blast loadings. In the literature, most of the K&C parameters are …

This study investigated the synergistic tensile response of blending 1% long and 0.5% short
steel fibers in ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) at high strain rates of 16–37 s− 1 …

The tensile response of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concretes (UHPFRCs) at
high strain rates (5–24 s− 1) was investigated. Three types of steel fibers, including twisted …

The fracture energy of ultra-high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) at high
strain rates (5–92 s− 1) was investigated, and specimens with 1–1.5% fibers exhibited very …
