Abstract:
Falling weight deflectometer (FWD) testing is effective in evaluating the structural response of in-situ concrete pavements through the backcalculated pavement layer parameters. Specifically, the FWD data can be used to backcalculate the foundation layer and concrete stiffness or the soil layer stiffness, effective slab thickness, and slab–base interface condition. Since continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) has closely spaced transverse cracks, the traditional backcalculation assumption of an infinite slab can lead to significant errors in the backcalculated results.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a one-dimensional non-linear model to predict the minimum and maximum crack spacings due to shrinkage in concrete pavements. The proposed model consists of two cohesive cracks and an elastic bar restrained by distributed elastic springs. The cohesive crack is characterized by an exponential softening constitutive relation. A set of non-linear equilibrium conditions are obtained. By varying the length of the elastic bar of the proposed model, the tensile forces acting on the cohesive cracks and the energy profiles are investigated. It is demonstrated that the cracking patter

The development of a mechanistically based model (CRACK) that predicts the spacing of cracks in roller-compacted concrete (RCC) pavements due to restraint of drying shrinkage and thermal contraction is presented. The model considers the RCC pavement thickness, paving lane length, base friction characteristics, climatic time-temperature regimes, as well as the RCC drying shrinkage, coefficient of thermal contraction, strength gain, and modulus of elasticity. The model also determines the tensile stresses and displacements of the RCC slab along its length, from which the crack width is predicted

Consider a thin film resting on a relatively thick substrate. When the substrate is subjected to an axial strain transverse cracks, normal to the direction, of the applied strain may appear in the film. It is observed that, for a given strain, the spacing between such cracks is uniform, with a clearly identifiable characteristic length scale that can be used to provide bounds on the spacing. Further, as the strain is increased, there is a densification of the cracks up to a saturation limit. Beyond the saturation limit additional strain produces no further cracks and the characteristic crack l

The expressions of crack spacing and width were deduced from the aspect of force-balance. The concept of maximum spacing and width of crack were put forward accordingly and they were verified and consistent with the site test results. Their relationships with soil parameters were discussed in detail. The new cracks do not appear until the spacing of adjacent cracks is greater than the maximum spacing, and the width of cracks will not be greater than the maximum width. The maximum spacing and width are judgments for describing and represent the final characteristic of cracks due to evaporation.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter introduces the important topic of fracture of materials and discusses the difference between brittle and ductile mechanisms of fracture; this distinction is discussed at both the local level in a process zone at a crack tip, and at the structural level. A criterion for the brittle fracture of a component which fractures by a locally brittle cleavage mechanism is derived by considering the locally elevated level of tensile stress at a crack tip in relation to the ideal cleavage strength of the material. A derivation of the ideal cleavage strength in terms of the Young’s modulus, the surface energy, and the interatomic lattice spacing of a crystalline material is provided. As a prelude to a discussion of modern fracture mechanics, this fracture criterion is recast in terms of an applied stress intensity factor and a critical stress intensity factor, or fracture toughness, of the material.

Abstract:
As a new nondestructive testing method, the accurate measurement of laser ultrasonic velocity is of great significance for judging the internal crack defects of composites, calculating the elastic modulus, residual stress and grain size. Based on the finite element analysis method, the thermoelastic effect of laser induced ultrasonic vibration, the time-of-flight method and laser grating method for measuring ultrasonic velocity are studied in this paper. Firstly, the waveforms of laser point source, line source and laser grating are compared and analyzed. Secondly, the error analysis of the wave velocity under different radius laser point source, different half width laser line source and different grating spacing is carried out. The simulation results show that the laser grating method has higher stability and smaller measurement error. In addition, this method is less affected by other waves and the external environment. This paper provides a basis for improving the measurement accuracy of laser ultrasonic velocity and further applying laser ultrasonic velocity to nondestructive testing and measurement of related physical quantities.

Abstract:
Coal mining has produced a large number of shallow cracks (“downward cracks”), which cause water and soil loss and ecological degradation. Coal mining has a huge impact on the ecological environment. This phenomenon is further aggravated by the superimposed mining of multiple coal seams. This study takes the two geomorphic conditions of wind beach and loess ridge as the research background. Based on the selection of typical working faces, the development law of downward fractures in multi coal seam superimposed mining has been studied by means of field geological survey, statistical analysis, numerical simulation and borehole logging. The results show that the downward cracks development laws of wind beach landform and loess landform are different when a single coal seam is mined. The depth and width of downward cracks produced by coal mining in wind beach landform are smaller, the cracks spacing is more stable, and there is no hidden cracks development. As the downward cracks of coal mining under the loess landform is more complex, the development law of downward fissure of multi coal seam superimposed mining under the loess landform has been further studied. There is no significant change in surface cracks in multi seam superimposed mining compared with single seam mining, but the density of hidden cracks is higher in multi seam superimposed mining. After the superimposed mining of coal, the density of hidden cracks increased by 100%, and the average height of hidden cracks increased by 60.95%. The research results provide key parameters for the treatment of multi seam superimposed mining subsidence areas under different geomorphic conditions.

In order to explore the frost resistance durability of basalt fiber reinforced concrete (BFRC), the freeze-thaw cycle tests of BFRC with different fiber contents were carried out from the microscopic point of view, and the macro-morphological deterioration characteristics and micro-morphological characteristics of BFRC with different freeze-thaw cycles were analyzed. By testing the hole structure parameters of BFRC with different freeze-thaw cycles, the effects of gas content, average bubble chord length, specific surface area, and bubble spacing coefficient on the frost resistance of BFRC were studied. The results show that: With the increase of fiber content, the damage degree of concrete specimens weakens, and the proportion of harmful pores in the pore size distribution increases significantly; It decreases with the increase of bubble spacing coefficient; The addition of basalt fiber can effectively inhibit the development of cracks and reduce the probability of large pores in the process of concrete freeze-thaw damage, thereby improving the frost resistance of concrete. Therefore, for the northern region, the research on the frost resistance of BFRC is very necessary and of great significance.

Abstract:
The diffraction of X-rays is used as the main method for determining the atomic and molecular structures of inorganic and biological materials. The basic law of diffraction was discovered by Lawrence Bragg when he was a student at Cambridge University and he was just 22 years old. Bragg’s law explains how the angle of a diffracted X-ray beam varies with the wavelength of the X-rays and the spacing of the atoms and molecules in the material. This chapter examines the way X-rays are generated and scattered by electrons, atoms and crystals; the use of structure factors and Fourier transforms to calculate the intensity of the scattered X-rays; and the effect of using electrons or neutrons instead of X-rays. Bragg was born and brought up in Adelaide in Australia. He discovered Bragg’s law with the help of his father, William, after they had moved to England. Lawrence was a Professor at Manchester University, Cambridge University, and the Royal Institution; contributed to the development of range-finding, asdic, and sonar during the First and Second World Wars; and supervised Crick and Watson when they discovered the structure of DNA.

Abstract Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) often occurs in clusters or colonies containing anywhere from a few cracks to hundreds of individual cracks. Multiple closely spaced cracks may interact, resulting in a burst pressure lower than what might be expected from a single crack. Most existing flaw interaction rules account for these interactions by using a single interacting crack to represent multiple cracks when the separations between them are less than a critical spacing. The length of this interacting crack is usually the sum of the individual crack length plus the spacing between them. U

The combined SIFs, KIN, that depend on both the “realistic” - Bauschinger Effect Dependent Autofrettage (BEDA) and “ideal” - Bauschinger Effect Independent Autofrettage (BEIA) are obtained and compared for crack to wall thickness, a/t = 0.01–0.25; crack ellipticity, a/c = 0.5–1.5; crack spacing ratio, 2c/d = 0.25–

Abstract:
Due to acute temperature gradients and repetitive high-pressure impulses, extremely dense internal surface cracks can be practically developed in highly pressurized thick-walled vessels, typically in gun barrels. In our previous studies, networks of typical radial and longitudinal-coplanar, semi-elliptical, internal surface cracks have been investigated with an ideal or realistic autofrettage level of 100 percent. We have shown that the combined SIFs are considerably influenced by the three-dimensionality of the problem and the Bauschinger effect (BE) along with dependence on other parameters,
