Abstract:
This study aims to analyze strength properties and low-cycle dynamic tests of composite materials modified with glass and basalt fibers. Biopolyamide 4.10 was used as the matrix, and the fiber contents were 15, 30, and 50% by weight. Static tensile tests, impact tests, and determination of mechanical hysteresis loops were carried out as strength tests. The length of the fibers in the produced composites and their processing properties were determined. The composite materials were compared with commercially available glass fiber-reinforced composites with 30 and 50% fiber contents. The results

A series of triaxial compression tests were conducted to investigate the influence of the fiber content and confining pressure on the shearing characteristics of cement-stabilized clay reinforced with glass fibers. The glass fiber contents were 0, 1‰, 2‰, 3‰, and 4‰ by weight of the dry soil. The stress strain and volume change behavior, shear strength, and energy absorption of the test specimen were obtained. The results indicate that the inclusion of glass fibers can increase the shear strength, inhibit the volumetric dilation of the test specimen, and improve its brittle behavior. The cohes

Abstract:
For shear-critical structural elements where the use of stirrups is not desirable, such as slabs or beams with reinforcement congestion, steel fibers can be used as shear reinforcement. The contribution of the steel fibers to the shear capacity lies in the action of the steel fibers bridging the shear crack, which increases the shear capacity and prevents a brittle failure mode. This study evaluates the effect of the amount of fibers in a concrete mix on the shear capacity of steel fiber-reinforced concrete beams with mild steel tension reinforcement and without stirrups.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fiber is widely used in geotechnical engineering because of its excellent physical and mechanical properties; however, PVA fibers are prone to aging, while basalt fiber has a natural anti-aging ability, which can be added to cement material to effectively eliminate the effects of aging on PVA fiber. Previous experiments identified that the optimum content of PVA fiber is 0.5% (mass fraction, the same below). Based on this, we continued to add basalt fibers of different lengths (3 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 18 mm, 30 mm) and different contents (0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, 1%) to
